Religions and ideologies are like virus

Imagine if religion is alive and have goals to propagate copies? What would it do? Well it will demand faith. That will bypass scepticism. It will promise eternal life or some rewards that nobody can verify. It will embrace society prejudice by banning most fun acts.

The same with ideology. Democrats are more pro immigrants than Republican because illegal immigrants attracted by welfare tend to vote democrats.

Also many beliefs gave nonscientific basis but is simply believed to support other beliefs.

Is Mary a virgin? If she is not then there is a much more likely explanation how she give birth to Jesus. Also Jesus was conceived suspiciously when Mary was away on a trip to her cousin.

What about the idea that iq tests are racists? Again. There is no need for evidence for such beliefs to grow. People that want to promote equality of result would claim that any tests where some races do worse than others as racists.

If you want to convince as many people as possible that the rich don’t earn it then you would say that any competency test is due to something politically incorrect like racism

Republicans tend to favor free market. Because those heavily taxed tend to vote lower taxes.

It’s as if ideologies and religions are like virus. As if I the virus can think what can I do to propagate copies.

And this obviously false reasoning correctly predict reality

What happened to ideologies that don’t do that? Things like too principled libertarians that’s pro open border. They become minority ideologies.

A lot like few people are jewish because Judaism gives jews A special place and say that all people can have good relationship with jewish’s God without converting
