    I recommend watching the video not just reading the title. You write about religous doctrines and dogma, the video is about every part of a religion, what and how ordinary followers do, etc. When someone goes to a pilgrimage is it fake? No they actually go there, and it’s part of the religion.

      Your logic is flawed and you should feel biased… Oh, you already do? Yeah, that tracks.

      FWIW, and just to clarify, ALL RELIGION IS FAKE. 🤌🏼

        I don’t know what do you mean, you haven’t seen a church or mosque in your life? I’m pretty sure they exist, and they are part of a religion. The video is not about what they speak in those buildings, but the whole thing: people believe in things, and those belifes has manifestations: festivities, buildings, rituals, books, etc, and that is a Religion in its actual sense. There is no word on if it’s based on facts or not,but how a religion looks like. Watch the video please.

          Oh? Religion is just a building/fanbase? So Spiderman is “real” because comic book shops & conventions exist? GTFO.

            We have different words for different things. If it’s based around a comic book character or a personal electronics manufacturer it’s called a fanbase, if it’s around a single preacher it’s a cult or sect, if it’s a bit older it’s a religion, but they can be very similar, yes.
