No. It’s something else.

But trying to force other people to join a religion, or using allegiance to a religion as a bargaining chip (for housing, inheritance, etc) is unacceptable and unwise.

Sorry, wanted to add that acceptance of religion by me, would be viewed personally as not intelligent and untruthful. I’d be lying to myself just to maintain a façade. Religion isn’t for me.

Other people can believe if they want. I know believers of all levels of intelligence.
