that to the populace a religion is necessary, be it good or bad; that it is a restraint necessary to gross and ignorant minds, which, without it, would have no longer any motive for abstaining from vice.
One of the biggest arguments in support of religion, but when does it stop being a tool necessary to use? Once the general population is "educated?" But then how do you define "educated." Similar to having an educated electorate, versus Epistocracy.
