      My point is that the way in which we seek truth is skewed by our evolution. We are not configured for epistemology, we are configured for survival/procreation, so our worldviews are not true but rather useful approximations of reality.

      For thousands of years humans lived their lives as though they were being watched by a God. They did this not because they had rational or empirical evidence for God, but because of the God gene, which had evolved in them as a purely social tool.

      I don't think the fact we have to approximate reality shows we aren't configured for epistemology and survival/procreation requires

      Epistemology as well because P is useful is just as much an epistemic proposition as any other.

      But our minds are not inherently aware that P is useful, so we can't count it as an epistemological statement.

      Religious tribes of the past did not think to themselves, "Hmm, what I believe is not true, but it is useful". They actually believed what they believed.

      I'm not saying people never truly believe in God. But when they do, they believe it in the same way you believe any other proposition.

      They're just wrong because of bad reasoning. You're conflating simply being wrong with embracing alternative epistemology here imo.

      Well, being wrong in that way can be considered bad epistemology, no?

      I don't think so. I think all attempts to frame alternative epistemologies miss the point. Truth is always the goal imo.

      I think you're conflating the desire for truth with the pursuit of truth. They're two different things.

          I don't see how.

          One can believe that they are interested in truth, but not take the relevant epistemic steps to discover truth. Someone who believes in Yahweh *thinks* they seek and have found the truth, but they didn't even attempt to find the truth - they found what was useful to them.
