“Offers an evolutionary advantage” may (or may not) be a true observation, but it’s neither here, nor there when it comes societal value. Evolution is red in tooth and claw. Struggle for life may lead to further “evolving”, but it’s arguably not very nice to make people struggle for life.

I’m describing, not prescribing. Right now we don’t know if religion serves as an analogue for the appendix or the liver in terms of cultural evolution.

Those eggs are not going to fry themselves.
