Maybe your dog has been diagnosed with a dietary responsive disease. Perhaps itâs time to switch from puppy to adult food or from adult to mature food. Or maybe youâve simply decided that your dogâs current diet isnât the best choice for him anymore.
Durkheim defined religion as a unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things, that is to say set apart and forbidden, beliefs and practices which unite into one single moral community, called a church, all those who adhere to them (1965 [1912]: 62).
In this metaphysical sense of origin, religion, like every social institution, begins nowhere. Rather, as Durkheim says, he is investigating the social forces and causes that are always already present in a social milieu and that lead to the emergence of religious life and thought at different points in time, under different conditions.
