      Suppose that religious belief increased social well-being by 2% but was false. Would you promote it because of its utility?

      In the long term all falsehoods are harmful.

          Beliefs are built on beliefs, so falsehoods are cumulative; small errors in reasoning, if validated for long enough, snowball into dangerous delusions.

          Respectfully disagree. Delusion is intrinsic (and necessary) to the human condition, with self delusion being the most popular flavor.

          Yes, many delusions are necessary for us to live, but even these are not without harm (e.g. love, cognitive dissonance, blindness to one's mortality)

          What about visual illusions? They r prob due to latent model of world that allows for effective navigation, and people w ASD/SCZ are less susceptible to them. (Though we do realize they're illusions I suppose, can still argue ASD/SCZ ppl have a truer model in those instances)

          Truths can be harmful as well. Living under the nihilistic assumption that my existence is rendered ultimately meaningless because the heat death of the universe will make all life disappear one day, while technically true, is ultimately harmful

          Some are more harmful than others. Not promoting thuis belief would likely lead to another religious belief taking place anyway.
