The clear majority of the world's population is still explicitly religious anyway.

Do you happen to know what the latest polling data on this is?

I think that the people in the fractured insanity are still a super minority... The "cohesive insanity" it's still IMO the prevailing POV, which means that the fractured one is most likely to change or vanish.

The religious impulse has never been outgrown, just outsourced. The worship of money, government, political or social ideologies, freedom, security or just the narcissistic ego are all still forms of worship.

I hate this kind of equivocation, it's also fatalistic. It's possible to do better than to believe someone rose from the dead two thousand years ago and that this is the most significant event in the history of space-time.

Some of us have stopped making a certain mistake, but of course we are still prone to make others. Cohesiveness? Fractured insanity? Does it matter if some groups are wrong in the same direction and others in various directions?

Humans won't outgrow religion Even in an evolutionary setting... Every human society has had religion, going back to the earliest evidence of humanity (ritualistic burials 25,000 bc) Religion serves an evolutionary purpose You never outgrow religion, you only swap gods

The definition of the words religion is important though. A cave man's ritual burial and Tom Cruise's scientology have very little in common. Sure, we might not outgrow religious impulses, but they have changed a lot, and will change further. "Religion" is a VERY broad term
