"All people have a desire to believe in god" is one of the assumptions and generalisations that make religion so unbearable to so many. No humility not to be all knowing just because you BELIEVE in something all knowing. No respect of otherness. No tolerance. Scary.,(reply>), @Rasheed "All people..." is not the same as 90%. It is not even the same as 99%. Precision matters. And btw, throughout history many more people than 10% were no monotheists. It is rather that 90% throughout history were NOT monotheists. So either way, it is false to claim what he did.,(reply>), @T V  when less than 10% of society is atheistic, its a pretty fair generalization. When over 90% of the world subscribes to a belief in a God, God's, or devine entities of some sort - its a fair generalization. <br><br>It's not always the case, but it's definitly a high majority..   What percentage would be needed in your opinion to be a fair generalization?,(reply>), @Rasheed  I do not have the impression that this justifies this vast generalisation. Throughout time there have always been prominent atheists and/or agnostics. Obviously. Not all humans subscribe to intellectual laziness and take the shortcut to explain things with "god". If that were the case human kind would never have developed anything of value in the sciences and engineering ever.,(reply>), Historically it's pretty accurate. Since the dawn of civilization people have found beliefs around "why are we here?" and gave the answer to God's or God to much of the unknown.  There Is an enate desire for humans to be part of something 'greater'.,(reply>), Let's talk 📫📫⬆️
