In my opinion it is much more to that from point of view of belief in supranatural forces.
We the members of this forum debate philosophy on academic levels no matter if we are experts in physics or byology or arheology or just people who find it funny to be involved in philosophy.
Only that the vast majority of people of our countries even from the Western world are not aware or very little interested in philosophy.
They hold dear the tradition inherited in their family ,the hollydays which bring families together,the sense of brotherhood which gives them the regular visit to places of worship,the sense of being backed in their lives by an allmighty force,all these and much more oter aspects of belief are pulling people towards religion.
RD in his famous TGD anlyzes the pros and the cons of religion ,in my opinion, in a too academic way,as if you could weigh feelings of humans from a cold perspective of usefullness .
I think as an error of atheism to consider religion with contempt even whilst we are sure in our disbelief in God.
As long as religion does satisfy people in their mode of thinking and helps them in their dayly struggle ,no matter what atheist will say,religion will continue to survive in the minds of millions.
