Are Religions used like a Business?

Yes. Religion is an organisation created to manipulate and control.

Religion is the greatest business of all. Prriests are usually rich, because churchs dont have to pay property taxes and people GIVE them money! They make you fear that you'll go to hell if you don't believe in something a silly book says.

If you ask me it's a bunch of stories. They're great to read as fiction, but to believe all of them is literally crazy.

Religion is just a crock those who use it believe in something that is supernatural so it should be called Witchcraft not belief in Jesus or God as neither of them were real , they were thought up by mere males

to scare the B Jesus out of you , and with the amount of followers it looks as if its worked well over all the years eh !!

Agree

religion only means law

yes it is set up like a business i personally believe that if the finance created is not to help the people in some way it is only a corp

Scientology is the classic case of a business dressed as religion.

Religion doesn't need money to survive. Pagans never needed money, and Early Christianity didn't need money, and so on and so forth. For thousands of years, religions have been passed on by word of mouth and writings, not money.

yes and no. some people use it to gain profit and some don't. it is a fact that back in the old days priest use to sell pardons to people as a way to have their sins forgiven, in fact they use to encourage people to buy pardons early for sins they didn't even do just in case they did do them in the future.

Churches are filled with brainwashed,frightened idiots,being told what to think and do by a pack of scumbags and other charlatons.

It depends upon the religion.
