Take Nigeria for example, political leaders use religion as a means to separate their citizens. Just like you said, many people are into religion for superiority over others.
There are even cases where a person is a staunch christian on Sundays but when his neighbor wrongs him, he locates the nearest native doctor in a means to teach them a lesson.
isn't it ironic the he has to teach someone a lesson when he himself havent learned the lesson in his own teachings.
As Nigeria is I fear how people are going to take the religion thing in years to come. We've become so divided that the first priority to give someone a job or hrabt a favor is if he's one of you or not.
It would take a miracle to end this whole religion bullshit...one can only hope.
Tbh, I see no end to it as it has now become a tool to be used. And its like that too everywhere, only on different levels.
