After discharge from psych hospital I imagined the world as a video game and like a game performing certain tasks in a given order rewarded players by advancing in life.
Similarly, Scientologist advance status by conducting certain tasks in a predetermined order not unlike a delusion of life.
Religion was invented to serve and appease god or the gods. Gods were mostly angry and enjoyed manipulating and terrorizing humans. Certain people claimed the ability to communicate with god or gods. In return for spiritual services, the church community provided housing and support to the religious servant.
In the mean time, members invite and recruit new members for increased revenue and social prominence in the community. And so the circle goes, until now when church attendance and belief in god is at an all time low compared to previous thoughts on the matter.
Increase attendance, bring up revenue, invest in the community, start over.
