Potential Hot Take
Religion is a collective illusion at best and a reason for genocide at worst. So we should do everything to create a society, where people just leave this dangerous liability behind.
A ban will not do it. But continuos reminders of what religion actually is and does, will pave the way for it to die out on its own.
Religion ruins everything.
I agree. A ban would be a counterproductive disaster. It’s something we need to grow out of collectively and that will take a minute.
We need to develop (we being humanity) a more moral equivalent to religion because it does fulfill some basic needs.
Per usual, educated people are harder to control.
