This stops us using our own instinct and intuition to guide us, thus affecting our free will.
The one strange thing is if we are decended from beasts when did the conscience evolve?
Animals are driven by base instinct, so when did we get to choose what we do against ours?
Agree with the first part of your post. If a person wants to seek spiritual enlightenment Just quietly in your own space ask for it.I was taught by my Christian upbringing that life after death was a fact. I felt the God I was encouraged to "worship" had definitely at the very least a warped personality. I turned away from that as soon as I could and sought a real path FOR ME. We are all capable of finding that enlightenment FOR OURSELVES. What you personally need you will find.
