The gap between each level is simply so wide that as yet science is unable to claim how it would ever bridge it. As the group to which a person belongs becomes bigger and complex, different sets of behaviors emerge in those groups. Chomsky also deems another property of human language, ‘creativity’ — which is the capability of producing and understanding sentences never uttered or heard before! This all seems to emerge out from the human mind’s universality which it is predisposed of. And this ‘universality’ depicts that somewhere out there, there is an agent that causes such a ‘universality’ to be contrived and rationalised into a single brain-aided mind — and the belief in that agent is religion!
