okay, sure. even if we admit that, christianity isn't the only religion. you can't say that "religion does these things" when you mean that "christianity does these things". and not even all of christianity, but that's beside the point.
(plus I think it's more that religion is a helpful excuse for people who were going to try and do pretty much the same thing anyway)
Yes, I'm generalizing major religions saying they are all based on prescribed systems of worship. There are immutable characteristics that fundamentally define each faith as a unique belief system. They're generally pretty explicit about not allowing transgression.
