Sociology
Welcome to c/sociology!
Sociology is a social science that focuses on society, human social behavior, patterns of social relationships, social interaction, and aspects of culture associated with everyday life. In simple words sociology is the scientific study of society. It uses various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to develop a body of knowledge about social order and social change. While some sociologists conduct research that may be applied directly to social policy and welfare, others focus primarily on refining the theoretical understanding of social processes and phenomenological method. Subject matter can range from micro-level analyses of society (i.e. of individual interaction and agency) to macro-level analyses (i.e. of social systems and social structure). Read more...

No, you did not write or even imply that, agreed. But it is your own biased suggestion based on your beliefs.
And that's awesome! Believe it or not, my thoughts and opinions are quite similar to yours.
Personally, I'm a Pastafarian. I believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster and his open nature of accepting other beliefs.
Besides, if we didn't have spaghetti, we'd all be dead by now.
R'Amen!
I think I am not the one in this conversion who is biased, if you need my view to aline THIS HARD with your idea of religion even if I have explicitly made clear that it is not.
I don't care what you belive or don't. But you can't see past your idea of that believing and religion is.
You missed the entire point of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. It's basically a parody of a 'religion', where the main premise is basically to believe whatever the fuck you want.
Literally the most open belief system out there. I'm not the one bitching in all caps, nor do I care to start.
Go reflect upon your noodles, they need a little stirring...
I'll reflect on my noodles a bit then. Maybe it'll show me the sauce of your confusion.
I'm not confused. I see the state of the world rather generically, and it's pretty simple...
Many, if not most religious people keep their religion in their wallets.
Obviously that's not true for everyone, but that mighty $$$ tends to guide the economy over the actual interest and benefit of the people.
