Religion:

• You have to Follow the only leader, you shall not have an Opinion, and you must convince everyone to have your opinion

Democracy:

• Have your own opinion
• Understand others arguments and find a compromise
• No Leader

Now why the actual fuck are people still saying that religion is less than a threat to Democracy? Like, everyone who just even mentions that he got their opinion from the bible should get a lifelong unpaid vacation from Europe straight to Dubai.
