Definitely agree. Our desire to be apart of a social group is one of the great crutches of modern religion. I have met so many people that care more about the social group religions inherently provide, than the doctrine or even the philosophy. However, Scientology confuses me because they do seek explanation. It is really the only "new religion" that recruits and still strongly depends on explanation. I guess the only way that this is possible in the 2013 is to utilize the word "science" and a pseudoscientific approach to lure in people who lack a strong social network and have no science education.Human's have the desire to be part of a group. It's called "Belongingness"
