Creative thinking with regard to religion psychology

Öz

Creative thinking is the process of developing new sentiments and ideas. The term ‘creating’ and its connotations are comfortably used in daily life. However, it is argued in this paper that the negative sense imputed to the terms of ‘creating’ and ‘creative’ as a way of expressing religious sensitiveness prevent people from attempting to create new and original things and to ameliorate the current ones. Although creative thinking requires a certain level of intelligence, a high level of intelligence does not always mean a high level of creativity. Creative thinking, which potentially exists in every healthy individual to a certain extent, is not a psychological disorder, nor is it unique to a privileged class. Put it differently, creative thinking should be seen as the common asset of all individuals in the society, not as the characteristic peculiar to a privileged class
