    Yeah, I understand. I was agnostic/very lightly religious a while ago, but reading and learning about dialectical materialism has made me accept that that it’s just impossible for such things to be true. Although religion as a social force cannot be eliminated overnight by just eliminating it’s organized branches, I do think many socialist nations made a mistake of having a policy of cohabitation with it. With proper education of the masses and illuminating how parasitic the organized institutions of religion are (especially in my country where they leech off the state’s budget), I think it’s possible to come to a point where you can just phase it out. A time where you outright ban them and everyone is just rather apathetic about it.
