Next Memes and the sociology of religion - how religious beliefs propagate and maintain themselves within social groups. Among many anthropologists and sociologists, it has recently become fashionable to dismiss all religions as memes - parasitic mental processes which propagate in the same manner as chain letters [Dawkins 1989, Dennett 1995]. In this view, religious belief is a self-perpetuating delusion.. A meme (rhymes with 'dream') may be defined as any self-referential belief system which contains within itself the instructions for its own propagation. Memes are often accused of being the social equivalents of computer viruses - useless or sometimes harmful mental processes which use their hosts to infect others. A meme has exactly the same psychological motivation as a chain letter - "If you propagate me then something nice will happen, if not then something horrible will happen". In order to justify themselves against attack by reason, religious memes place absolute reliance on faith, which is seen as being superior to reason. They also contain self-referential or circular claims to the truth such as "This meme says it is the divine truth. Since it is the divine truth whatever its says must be true. Therefore it must be divine truth because it says so and all competing memes must be the work of the devil".

50. Marx, Religion, And Sociology Of Religion (Luckmann 1967 22) Luckmann is saying the sociology of religion has sold out What does Marx have to offer conventional sociology of religion which it http://www.angelfire.com/or/sociologyshop/msor.html

Marx, Religion, and Sociology of Religion by David H. Kessel INTRODUCTION Karl Marx has been progressively included in general sociology in recent years.. Yet, in certain sociological specialties his ideas seem to be missing or given only brief attention. One such specialty is the sociology of religion. Despite the importance accorded to religion by Marx, a careful reading of the sociology of religion literature reveals few references to his views. The purpose of this paper is to understand why this is so and to explicate Marx's views on religion in order to facilitate the use of a Marxist perspective in the discipline. CONVENTIONAL SOCIOLOGY OF RELIGION As just indicated, there is a paucity of attention paid to Marx in the current sociology of religion. While acknowledging the persistence of an anti-marxian ideological climate in the West, to adequately assess this situation one must turn to the specialty itself, its assumptions and methods. Thomas Luckmann provides a fruitful analysis of the discipline. He maintains that there is today an absence of developing theory in the sociology of religion. This absence of theory is both a conceptual and methodological problem. Conceptually, Luckmann points out the main assumption of the discipline has been and still is the erroneous identification of religion and church. This erroneous identification has resulted in the equation of religiosity with, and only with, its organized and institutionalized form. The result, Luckmann maintains, is obvious: religion then becomes amenable to scientific analysis "
