REMINISCENCIJE KULTURNO-RELIGIJSKOG PRABITKA
CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS REMINISCENCE OF ARCHE-BEING

Summary/Abstract: Almost all humans, more or less, have a certain opinion on religion as a social phenomenon, as a form of social conscience, important cultural, historical, political, ethical element and so on, and all of them feel competent to state their own opinion and interpretation, even if it was the most obscure possible. It is because the religion is here, with us, because we live through generations, because every man is born in a certain culture-civilization corps where the religion is the main "HQ” around which revolve and happen other things, relations and total socio-economic life. In that sense, from the day of their birth, humans gradually meet their religion, practice their rites and customs, and by living in such a milieu, to them "their religion” is the most logical, most civilized, most correct, in one word, the best. Compared to "own” all others are illogical, incorrect (stray), pagan, wrong, in one word, religions not recognized by "the real God” and which will sooner or later return to the "True path”. All this religious self-loving, religious narcissism, distinctiveness, exclusiveness and preferring of ones own and belittling of the others, leads to disparaging, cultural contempt, all the way to open verbal confrontations, which are a "step” forward towards open military altercations and wars, clearly shown by political history. In that sense, all that narcissism and obsession with the "own”, from one side, and negative directness towards the "others”, happens due to studying religion partly and subjectively (yet partially).
