Religious thinking may be bad, but it’s a blessing compared to extreme Po-mo litcrit, esoteric woowoo and magical thinking in general. When I hear some of my fellow atheists wishing for religion to vanish from the face of earth, I often think “be careful what you wish for”. Organized religion at least puts the irrational tendencies intrinsic to every human being into a controlled environment.
