If a religion exists for the good of the people, it has a certain value.
However, if a religion has a high tendency to disregard people's lives and to bring misfortune to them, then such a religion has no value at all for most people.
It is the few who profit from the disregard for human life and the misery of the many who find some value in such a religion.
There are political systems in which religious doctrines and politics operate inseparably.
This is called【unity of religion and politics】.
It is a form of politics that has historically been divided into【church-state】and【state church】.
If a religious polity functions in a way that guarantees the lives of the people belonging to that polity and makes many of them happy, then it has a certain value for many people belonging to that polity.
However, if religious politics functions in a way that disrespects the lives of the people belonging to that political system and makes many people unhappy, then religious politics has no value for the many people belonging to that political system.
It is the few who profit from the disregard for human life and the misery of the many who find some value in such religious politics.
§2. Japanese
宗教が人々の為に存在するのなら、一定の存在価値が在る。
しかし、宗教が人々の命を軽視し、人々に不幸をもたらす傾向が高いのなら、多数の人々にとって、その様な宗教は、全く存在価値を持ち得ない。
その様な宗教に、何らかの存在価値を見出せるのは、人々の命を軽視し、多くの人々を不幸にする事で、利益を得る、一部の少数者達である。
宗教的教条と政治とが不可分な形で運営されている政治体制が在る。
これは、【政教一致】と呼ばれる。
それは、【教会国家】や【国家教会】と歴史的に区分けされてきた政治形態である。
その宗教的政治が、その政治体制に属する、人々の命を保障し、多くの人々を幸福にする様に機能しているならば、その政治体制に属する多くの人々にとって、その宗教的政治には、一定の存在価値が有る。
だが、その宗教的政治が、その政治体制に属する、人々の命を軽視し、多くの人々を不幸にする様に機能しているならば、その政治体制に属する多くの人々にとって、その宗教的政治には、何らの存在価値は無い。
その様な宗教的政治に、何らかの存在価値を見出せるのは、人々の命を軽視し、多くの人々を不幸にする事で、利益を得る、一部の少数者達である。
