Hi David, >From Wikipedia: "Feuerbach talks of how man is equally a conscious being, more so than God because man has placed upon God the ability of understanding."
How did Feuerbach conclude that man placed characteristics upon God? I ask this because I agree with the three statements that follow in that paragraph, but I am curious how Feuerbach arrived at that original assumption. "Man contemplates many things and in doing so he becomes acquainted with himself. Feuerbach shows that in every aspect God corresponds to some feature or need of human nature. 'If man is to find contentment in God,' he claims, 'he must find himself in God.'" Any thoughts/direction?
