Yes. God allows one to play minecraft. I don't disagree about both. Just that some people use that lame excuse to be lazy, as you know.

Society is weak. It is vulnerable to new ideologies because there is not a common value set and all the old ones are dismissed aggressively. It's a slippery slope. Started by dropping religious artifacts, then the value system keeps slipping. Now being patriotic is bad.

Normies need to be told what to do and what not to do - along some general lines. Without it, they are ripe for commies to harvest. Look at the young women gravitating to Bernie - he became the voice of a very adamant and confident father - and people are missing that.

In communism, allegiance to state becomes god. That's the only way it can work even for a little, because people have to be willing to sacrifice for the sake of an ideal. That's why commies hate religion. Communism requires motivation based on idealism.

Capitalism let's two forms of human nature compete: laziness vs greed. Add in virtue and you get more success - thus, religion is really the friend of capitalism. Ironically, capitalism turns evil without moral duty.
