Unlike gambling, internet and crack, religion is a basic need for all humankind. I mean, look around you. There must be a supreme being to keep the universe orderly. we HAVE to believe in this supreme being. God. Thats why we need religion.
Religions give us a guide for living. It covers every aspect of our life, so that we can live in harmony. Don't call it addictive. Addictive usually refers to something bad.

I wouldnt say its addictive but its like a drug in many ways.
It serves very few purposes and for the most part it actually ruins more lives than it helps

It is after a child is indoctrinated in to it. After so many years of brainwashing it's so hard to see the light.

check any local gathering of AA or NA, and you'll probably find they are about 99% christian. I don't believe that to be a coincidence.
