about this story

The boy who name"Sigmund Freud"is famous for his psychoanalytic school of thought, but he also took a keen interest in religion.Sigmund Freud was born to Jewish parents in the heavily Roman Catholic town of Freiburg, Moravia.Throughout his life, Freud endeavored to understand religion and spirituality.Freud believed, that religion was an expression of underlying psychological neuroses and distress,like what the girl distress of something.While Freud was very upfront about his atheism and believed that religion was something to overcome, he was aware of the powerful influence of religion on identity. He acknowledged that his Jewish heritage, as well as the antisemitism he frequently encountered, had shaped his own personality,just like the flower that bloom to give every person a new start to change his appearance.Religion is an attempt to master the sensory world in which we are situated by means of the wishful world which we have developed within us as a result of biological and psychological necessities.If we attempt to assign the place of religion in the evolution of mankind, it appears not as a permanent acquisition but as a counterpart to the neurosis which individual civilized men have to go through in their passage from childhood to maturity.For him
our knowledge of the historical worth of certain religious doctrines increases our respect for them, but does not invalidate our proposal that they should cease to be put forward as the reasons for the precepts of civilization. Those historical residues have helped us to view religious teachings, as it were, as neurotic relics, and we may now argue that the time has probably come, as it does in an analytic treatment, for replacing the effects of repression by the results of the rational operation of the intellect."
