      Depends on how you define a religion. In the broader sense I agree but in the legal sense its complicated. Take the religion of Copyism as an example. An actual recognised religion in Sweden. Whose religion centers around the belief that information should be freely avaliable and whose sacred act is copying anything.

      Okay, here’s a fact: belief in money is a religion. It’s magical thinking that says if you believe something hard enough it’ll become true. You cannot be a capitalist and an atheist, because anyone who believes in money is religious.
