I have just finished reading the June edition of National Geographic "The Birth of Religion" and is about the oldest known temple: Goebekli Tepe (located in Turkey).
What is really shocking about this artical is that organized religion gave birth to civilization. Apparently, this idea has now become conventional wisdom among archaeologists.
When i growing up, i was taught the standard line that emerging agriculture drove the Neolithic Revolution. Farming meant the ability to stay in one place rather than be nomadic. Civilizations that grew up around these proto-cities developed Religion to bring coherency and order to society.
I Am a bit Sepalcure about this edition of National Geographic but its seems to be Ture and makes sense, what's your opinion
