We have been endowed with a symbolic brain that helps us adapt to and survive in our natural and man-made worlds. However it is open to both true and false beliefs both of which have impacts on our well-being.

So our symbolic brain's readiness for supernatural beliefs is a mixed blessing-but a blessing nevertheless.
