Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: 2, , language: English, abstract: The essay expounds on Durkheim's theory regarding the origin of religion, its functions, the role of religion in the evolution of human knowledge, observations about Totemic religions, and critics of Durkheim's theory. Knowledge emanates from religion, and that religion is sacred in society; therefore, man owes his knowledge to society, God, and religion. It is evident that man's attempts to understand religion, God, Totem, and nature lead to the advancement of knowledge from primitive to cognitive and scientific enlightenment. Durkheim's view on totemic religion does not apply to large modern societies but cannot be criticized without adequate research because they are based on personal observation. Religion functions as a man's connection to supernatural beings such as God and originates from human nature concerning moral and societal values.
