 So, the first time I seriously thought about religions and their associated doctrines and tenets are two things:\\
 \\
-. How incredibly arbitrary! If you ever ask for a justification for their doctrines/tenets, you will never get a proper response. It's either "because I feel so" or "because a book says so" or "because [High God] says so" or something to that effect. It's all circular. Individuals, ie. adherents of a religion, might actually try to justify to justify their belief in a doctrine/tenet, giving you some attempt at a [[deontology|deontological]] explanation for why their faith correctly considers some things as either right or wrong. However, the religion itself - as opposed to individual adherents - won't even go as far as to try to justify its doctrines/tenets deontologically. It will always point to someone or something else, and that something else always happens to be [[Verifiability|unverifiable]].
