Idiotic humans will make a religion out of anything and seem to have an innate imperative to do so. Anything from brushing your teeth, nutrition to the larger ideologies .....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmentalism

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activism

The list can go on and on. Religion is just a way for a group of like minded people to mindlessly tap into an ideology an cause great societal harm in the process. Things start out nice..........
But like islam a few get into power and it is all down hill from there.
