![“[Religion is a] primitive insurance against disaster. ... Originally religion was merely a function of the self-preservative instinct. Offer sacrifices to the gods and save your crops. And even Christianity, after all, insures heavily against the flaws in this life by belief in another.” quote by Rose Macaulay](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/67f/rose-macaulay-8071_belief_religion-is-a-primitive-insurance-agains_2173210.jpg)
