Many years ago, a co-worker/friend of mine said "life is just a series of traps and decoys". I took such wisdom to heart.

Religion can be either a trap or a decoy", depending on the circumstances.

you'd have to have a real thing that the decoy imitates.

I decoy, meaning a distraction (i.e. ignore that man behind the curtain)

Comfort for a weak mind.

that's why some don't need it because they have exceptionally strong minds (like you and aufgablassen).

Exceptional is much to strong a word...educated perhaps.

Religion is a way to promise people that while their life is not good in this life, they will have a better afterlife... However, only if one does not uprise and overthrow those in power.

It keeps the sheep in check.
