Religion is a self-sustaining beast. It reproduces - it's got 'evangelizing' parts and 'have lots of babies' parts - also some vestigial 'don't abort' and 'get married before sex' parts too, which were ideal in its original environment, but now no longer useful. 1/

"the religion has many built-in mechanisms to disrupt, suppress, or eject the malfunctioning parts of its body." .... unless its part of the papacy and then it takes a good kick to deal with a "pedopadre."

No, I explicitly made the point that this is not applicable in the same way to most other aspects of our worldviews - or rather, it exists on a spectrum and saying both ends of the spectrum are the same thing is wrong.

Not only BLM, but also climate change, right up to the number of babies you are allowed to have...

While I generally think climate change is real and bad, I also kind of agree that climate change is also kinda high on the religion spectrum.

Thinking blacks shouldn’t be killed disproportionately by the state = religion?? These attributes can either be extended to any normative view (belief in rights, libertarianism, math, etc.) and is a trivial point, or the resemblance is vague or just false.
