Side note Regarding "Stairway to Heaven", they may have had a potential backward message at some prior time. It WAS a gimmick in use a few times before. Pink Floyd's The Wall, for instance, has one on "Empty Spaces". I placed it in a reel-to-reel and physically reversed the tape and it says: "Congratulations, you have found the secret message. Send your answer in care of (our) Pink to ????(some address)" If I was engineering Led Zepplin, I might have not placed a backwards recording directly on Stairway to Heaven but to "The Battle of Evermore" with a message on "Bring it back,....bring it back....oh now oh now.....bring it back..." [I never sensed any backward recordings on these but it COULD have been possible to have had them on some earlier recordings. But anything I've heard from Evangelicals were simply delusions.]

I've watched this video before and couldn't add anything, but the domestication concept should be kept in mind when researching the evolutionary record of the development of Humanity and Agriculture, and E=mc^2 .., and why the Big Bang Theory is a theologically domesticated, controversial idea, not even wrong. And some people unbelieve in the unbelievable, no going outside the context of belief +/-?.. which is why the unreligon of "create the controversy" works so well on domesticated unthinking denialists, belivers in undeserved Titles, empty mottos, slogans and word bites.., to keep them confined in ignorance of actual knowledge. An outsider, the "wild type" with a blank slate analysis technique, can find the +/- values of the concepts in any PMI study, religious / cultural norms and so on, in the (totalitarian/universal) Totality. The quality of the talk has remained invaluable for the 13years it's been "out there".

Compatiblism is a debatable topic; one shouldn’t be discounted for entertaining a philosophical position you don’t hold. I would agree with you if it was a baseless irrational perspective.

Explaining the origins of religion is not a genetic fallacy in itself. It would only be one if you tried to use such explanations as formal arguments against the validity of religion. I haven’t seen Dennett do that.

Religion had to start somehow & it’s appropriate to study it as a natural phenomenon since it clearly exists naturally among humans. The contrapositive example would be if most people didn’t have such a tradition but particular folks that had a unique experience.
