I blame NRx (though of course the idea has a long pedigree dating to Machiavelli and Gibbon): "religion is good social technology," and worse, I've seen them say "theology is software code with consequences for computational performance."https://twitter.com/ReforgedSwordo/status/1380024373277552641 …

It seems to me that you're finding virtù, Fortuna and necessitas than Christianity per se. Stale post-facto adaptationism as truth-heuristic. Legal codes manifestly do work, what kind of anti-statism is this? Pair it with some domestic cult and patriarchal hearth, there you go.

Why are you arguing against Christianity? "You can have a functional society entirely without it!" You can't. You certainly aren't getting there with "legal codes" - which was one of Jesus' main messages that the letter of the law without the spirit is worse than nothing.
