Mostly seems to be political views.

Political views are not new. What made them religions recently?

  • IDK, you'd have to ask the people that treat politics like their religion these days. They're everywhere. Doubt it would help, though, because those people will never admit to it being their religion even though it very obviously is.

    • And maybe this has something to do with your personal definition of religion not matching the one that the rest of the world is operating under.

      "This is something I believe in firmly and will defend my belief in" is not what makes something a religion.

      Real religions have tenets, rituals, and beliefs beyond things like "people deserve to be treated well".
