For those of you who voted "no" to the head question, please define what a *Religion* is......
the problem with this is that it means what it means to a given person.
to me, to qualify as a religion requires the vigorous criteria that it work on at least a significant fraction of its practicioners to actually achieve altered states of consciousness.
If no, then its just a paradigm vampire paradigm with pretensions of being religion because thats where the blood pool is.
