James George Frazer has a very practical and different view of religion. Even though his theory recognizes the human potential of thought, I disagree with Frazer\u2019s idea that religion is a rejection of magic and that it will eventually turn into science. I believe that magic was looked at as a part of religion but I do not believe that Religion is a rejection of magic. Science and religion can co- exist and it does not have to be one or the other. \u00a0Science is something that people have started to resort to for many different things.\u00a0 Medicine, our solar system, information about our environment, and weather are things that religion can\u2019t tell you.\u00a0 Science only goes so far then comes religion. Believing in God and having faith gives most people a sense of purpose. In my opinion religion will not go extinct because of the faith most people share in a higher power. Even though science has come a long way religion gives me something to believe in, and it will continue to give me something to believe in due to the sense of purpose it empowers in me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After going through all of the theorist\u2019s views on religion I think that Frazer has a very interesting idea about religion and where it came from, and how it will turn out.
