Understanding Religion's Relationship To Human Social Systems

[note: This blog  was inspired by and functions as a continuation of:  the immediately prior conversation recorded: here .] To clarify in advance, I don't consider bad-logic to be a form of abuse except when that is happening intentionally  as a means to gaslight others, invalidate others, dominate others, exploit others, or shelter one's self from accountability.    If someone is being abusive, in any way,  and then a recipient or witness happens to point it out, ... that should usually conclude their end of it. Now, if an abuser really doesn't realize they've behaved harmfully or unethically,  it's fine to ask  "What did I do that was wrong?" And then if (ONLY IF) the accused can't yet understand how their actions are unethical or injurious,  it's fair to ask what makes their behaviors unethical or potentially harmful to others.  If, instead, they choose to go with "why should I care how my behaviors affect others?"  That just means the

Responding to the first 1 minute and 4 seconds of this shit show: I wrote: If there was well-paid job where someone goes through every moment of videos to explain where people were-vs-weren't being logical, fair, etc, I'd gladly do that job. I used sometimes do it for free. But with so many points to consider, not even my fellow atheist/skeptics would want to spend time reading or listening to such long reviews. These days, I tend to give a lot less time to religious fundamentalists; for the sake of the value of my own time and peace. I actually enjoy spending the occasional hour on random social and ideological issues that catch my interests. But there's definitely a diminishing return on every minute after that first hour. I'm only a bit over a minute into this video. And already the religious guy has more focused on propagandizing the discourse rather than having a genuine and fair exchange of ideas. Examples: No one (literally nobody) who is Trans says

Responding to the greatly and rightly esteemed psychologist, Dr Ramani,  regarding her thoughts presented in this video: My original reply has been replaced with this reply.  My original reply was too long,  and covered unnecessary ground. This new reply goes to the heart of the matter.  -- Obviously, substitute "Nazis" with "Narcissists".  Dr. Ramani  accidentally, with the best of intentions,  pulled a Kanye.  Please note:   I actually do respect and appreciate Dr Ramani.  I will continue to follow, cite, and appreciate her work.  But I think she should revisit this issue.  --- Thanks for coming to my  WhoTF is TED(?) Talk.   

The claim has been made. " there were tens of millions of people killed in the 20th Century by atheist regimes. Killers don't need a reason to kill." ---- In reply, ...  Atheism is only a problem for clinical psychopaths who need an extreme Hover-parent in their mind ... always watching, judging, threatening, and rewarding them ... and demanding good behaviors.   Such psychopaths do exist. So then, sure. Yea. A "God"-belief can make that person be safer for other people. However, ... 1. Religion is far more likely ... to empower a psychopath to do even more damage.  That's usually how it goes.  and 2.  Most people don't need it for anything at all; except social benefits. But even THAT only applies wherever churches have a strategic and ill-gotten monopoly on social opportunities; like in America.  -- Meanwhile, ... Most people are capable of outgrowing the need to be a permanently dependent child under a supervising parent.   And yet, most religions tr
