While an atheist, Schopenhauer didn't entirely dismiss religion. He viewed religions as attempts to satisfy humanity's "need for metaphysics" – a fundamental human desire to understand existence and cope with the suffering of life. He believed that religions conveyed profound, intuitive truths about the nature of reality, but they did so through allegory, myth, and symbolism, rather than through rational philosophical argumentation.
