I said this relative to someone being able to touch these things. Atheists, evolutionists and others are so hung up on touching or seeing.....but they can’t see any of these things - yet all these and morality...continue to ‘govern’ the majority of humanity.
Having said that - God (and his son) still governs all, even though it may not appear as such sometimes.
Non-believers take philosophy very seriously, and are perfectly fine with concepts that they cannot empirically see and touch, they just don't need an invisible authoritarian to make them exist.
Religion was mankind's first crack at philosophy, although a very poor one. That is why so many elements of religion and philosophy are parallel.
Religion is to philosophy what alchemy is to chemistry and what astrology is to astronomy. Its just taking us a little longer to shake than the latter two.
