Summary

This quote suggests that at its core, religion is characterized by a sense of childlike reliance or dependence.

The quote may imply that religious practices and beliefs provide a form of psychological or emotional support, helping people deal with life's uncertainties in a way that replicates the dependence experienced during childhood.
