Another example is loosing access to useful intersubjective truths that religions have accumulated over the centuries.
Burkean conservatism translated into modern philosophical jargon. This argument would apply only to religions that are at least centuries old. How many of these remain in unchanged form in modern Western world?
Wouldn't Burkean conservativism recommend being a member of any reasonably stable religion, perhaps preferably the one you were born into?
If we are to continue having access to the useful intersubjective truths stemming from the Enlightenment, I don't think we can wholely buy itnto the rival intesubjective truths of religion.
