placebo effect religion
Religion is the ultimate example of the placebo effect? It gives people nothing, but makes them feel better?
In fact, religion is actually more than it Gives Back. I mean sure it helps someone who is very satisfied with their life find a reason to live, they feel better about their pathetic lives, apparently.

Unfortunately, the freedom to choose his own belief system does not exist everywhere, so people must be indoctrinated and included (as children) in the belief systems that are destructive to them.

IMHO, "Feel [ing] more of [my] life pathetic" is important, so I felt that my life was meaningless and unregarded, this wrong will not be punished and right rewarded by Karma or a deity, why should I just go Amok and take revenge against life and commit horrific crimes like these people go to McDonald's and get everyone? Maybe I think just to save me from being a monster? Or maybe you save my anger …
