(7,217 posts)Bullshit and fairy tales. Especially abrahamic religions. My ancestors were fine until forced to convert under threat of death. Religion is just a means to control people, especially women.

(11,611 posts)Was used for centuries as proof of god. In a world where music was rare, expensive and usually only available in religious settings, people usually only got that feeling in church. So, of course religion claimed that feeling as being from the holy ghost or some other god like creature.
That's why some churches outlawed music outside church. Secular music was competition for religion. In the middle ages, the church when it allowed music outside church, insisted it be about god and not other topics.
Eventually access to music became common. But we still can get that feeling when listening to good music
