    Do you consider RELIGION a mental virus?

    A little bit of a background https://richarddawkins.net/2014/02/whats-in-a-meme/

    Is being religious inherently self-defeating or are we basing the definition on a narrow form of religion?

              Everybody needs to believe in something.
              As long as they do no harm to others -- I really don't care.
              Unfortunately, it usually descends into my god told me to destroy you.
              Or, some kind of false superiority and smugness -- this goes beyond religion.

              Karl Marx was right but what harm are millions of addicts if they keep to themselves -- killing and cheating each other?

                          anyone who thinks like that has no idea what religion is and what purpose it serves. since religion has existed in some form in every civilization ever... obviously it serves a vital role to our survival as a species.
                          .

                              I am an anarchist and agnostic, but I believe laws and morals are necessary.

                                      True. But that determination is pretty horrific.

                                      I would rather say religion determines immorality.

                                                              Of course religion is a virus, but so is money, ideas, dogmas, etc.

                                                              Once it becomes "organized" that's when shit happens

                                                              I know religious people who are cool and other ones who are just gone...

This phrase was first used on paper money in 1957, when it appeared on the one-dollar silver certificate.

The commandments include instructions to worship only God, to honour one's parents, and to keep the sabbath, as well as prohibitions against idolatry, blasphemy, murder, adultery, theft, dishonesty, and coveting. Different religious groups follow different traditions for interpreting and numbering them.
