I think it's religious thinking in general. The notion that there is no proof therefore you MUST believe. If you can't believe without proof you don't have faith, and that's a sin.
We can see in the US how this mentality of belief first, facts never, can result in things like shootings in pizza parlors or domestic terrorists storming the capitol.
Religious leaders often foster this way of "thinking" from young, in children defenseless to the brainwashing which lets them be exploited by those within the church, or those like the tards behind the Q larp.
It's not to say parishioners as individuals are bad or evil, often far from it given some of the good they can do within their communities, but they're ripe for radicalisation, be it via their faith or some tool bag on the Internet spinning an easy to understand explanation about why there are contrails behind a passenger jet that doesn't involve differences in air pressure or condensation in the air and is instead a secret Government mind control project that is much easier to understand for those failed by the education system. Then it's just a quick pivot to "the jews are behind it" and they're signing up for the Proud Boys.
The reader already believes and then goes looking for proof, rather than discovering a fact and letting that guide their opinions.
This is when we get photos of the interior of water bombing planes being shared as proof of chemtrails.
They already believe first, they have the "faith", and then go looking for proof, like "miracles", and because they already believe they're right, anything can be proof.
And anything that doesn't support what they believe is easily dismissed as part of the conspiracy, "what they want you to believe", or fake news etc.
It is sadly, in this day and age with so many people willing to exploit others for profit, religiosity is a red flag, some worse than others, but none great.
Now you're making sense..... expand your thinking to incorporate that 'religious teaching' into other areas, including modern education in schools, the mad rush to being 'gender diverse', and all the other things.
Like ever so many these days, you are immersed in the very problem you discuss so deeply that you desperately seek to look at things as black and white, right and left, goodies and baddies, and just like any 'proud boy' you choose a side and that side can do no wrong .... and are actually, in doing so, part of the problem.
Contrary to a common belief, it is the Woke Left who are the real Neo-Fascists of today - seeking as they do to impose by threat, force, 're-education', violence and campaigns of terror, AND by subverting the very mechanisms of government so as to impose their idea of 'right' on everyone else. It starts with the education system - not any religious system (though the two could easily be compared and found the same these days) - and the result is as mad and potentially violent towards billions as is Islamism and its blind and unthinking adherents.
Go back through your thesis above and put other words in place of 'religio-whatever' and see how the cards turn up......
