Most people with religious beliefs and churches themselves don't reevaluate the things you mentioned.

Otherwise the world would be a totally different place.

Just because you can see ego min and max things in theory it doesn't mean it has a real influence in people.

Religios people lifing a 'good' life and as soon as someone needs help all is gone.

Plenty of sexual abuse have happened and is probably still happening.

You yourself brought it up.

And then we have the other extreme devoted religious people not question anything.

I think we need real thinking education which is independent of religion. Learning mental biases, learning how group dynamics work etc.

The social fragmentation was always here. Nothing changed. There were plenty of very racist people in a time were religion were much stronger.

Right now thanks to education we gain a global more social get-together than ever before.

People are less racist, woman have more rights and are more independent, homosexual people are less in danger than before.
