Nobody should need religion to 'remind' them to be good. To argue that 'goodness flows' in a church is very naïve. Religion is about power, control and money. Places of 'worship' are commonly places to victimise the weaker in society.

Again. This is a monolithic categorization of religion into one category. And, yes, people need reminders for all sorts of things. When the tumult of living sends us off kilter, a reminder of good is a very helpful thing. I hope you can find evidences of good in folks of all cultures & beliefs.

It is one category and if a person needs religion to tell them to be good then that is a fault in that person.

People are a mix of good, bad, indifferent and all other things. Religion doesn't make them somehow 'better'.
