Why is religion in the business of moral policing?

RE: Why is religion in the business of moral policing?
Well if you're fucking out of wedlock then you are more likely to end up with unclaimed bastards, and there's nothing quite so effective at ensuring the next generation grows up brainwashed than having two stuck-together brainwashed parents, so of course that's something they'd want to crack down on. I mean, look at freakin' Mormons.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
