Do you think that one day religion will become a thing of the past

RE: Do you think that one day religion will become a thing of the past
Religions will never die out because they serve the purposes of governments. They indoctrinate people to believe and obey without exception. If people ever got away from that and actually made up their own minds there would be anarchy. No one would go off to fight in wars because people would realize that they won't personally benefit by getting killed and wounded because some dummy told them to go over the hill and kill the people in the next town. Besides, religions encourage bigotry by convincing dummies that they are better than the idiots who are not in their cult (either religious, political, racial, or geographical). That directly benefits the wealthy and political class.
