religion
Definition
Religion can be summarized as organized spirituality. Each religion has its own individual doctrine to explain the method of understanding the spiritual.
Wikipedia entry on ‘Anarchism and religion’:
'Anarchists have traditionally been skeptical of and opposed to organized religion. Many organized religions are hierarchical and are aligned with contemporary power structures similar to those found in state hierarchies. This does not mean that anarchists are in opposition to personal faith, only to the authoritarian nature of organized religion. Further, Anti-authoritarianism is a central theme in some religious sects and non-sectarian churches, and some other variants of mainstream religions. Many notable anarchists have been religious. Some anarchists, like Leo Tolstoy and Ammon Hennacy, were firm believers in the principles of Christian anarchism and nonviolence.'
Card-carrying rationalists who detest religion hinder and spoil cooperation between anarchists with different approaches to overcoming or sidelining capitalism, statism etc., and exploring sustainable alternatives.
