MODERATORS
Most reasonable people have decided that everyone gets to have an unsubstantiated belief system that goes into the "Religion" slot and it's not a big deal as long as no one makes it a Big Deal. Reasonable people have decided this because trying to proactively eliminate it is way harder and god-awful than just letting it ride (once again, as long as no one makes it a Big Deal).
This was the best fucking ELI5 of religion I've ever read. Bravo.
Reads like Douglas Adams
I love this explanation because it sounds silly, but it's also exactly how it works.
Too bad the entire thing with religions is that they think it's a Big Deal.
