No.

Organized religion includes every belief system, western or eastern. Believing there is NoReligion/NoGod qualifies as a belief system. Aquarius is about 'groups'. Saturn is co-ruler. Saturn is about 'structuring'.

From having had parents born in mid-earlier 1900s, and each of them having had Saturn in Aquarius-- they were strict believers, and dogmatically narrow. They detached themselves from input from other systems. Belonged to a 'parish' that assisted its members in other ways, socially. It takes a Village!

We're talking about ALL the people of the world here. Not just the small segment into consciousness-awareness and tolerance.

Sharing with others.. does not necessarily come naturally. It has to be taught. Being a Good Neighbor-- sharing with others, is a value that {most} religions teach. Doing Good for Others.

In a strange way? ..
Instead of less religion, and NO religion, we need those who HAVE a more enlightened Higher Spiritual approach WITHIN their sect or group, or society. -- People with a TRUE (and Holy) practicing-relationship with their Maker -- to guide each individual into a deeper and clearer understanding of their INNER spiritual-man of the Heart, and the operation of how the spiritual realm works.

It's like what was said in a post I saw Anony make in a DivDiv thread. My paraphrase-- He was basically saying that when you 'learn' how YOUR selected-practice operates, and you use its principles as you should, then you get PLUGGED IN to spiritual realms.. From there, you learn the real Value of an individual's ability to have a Relationship to the Divine.

Hopefully, we Meet each other on that Level.

Ability to appreciate and participate in Religion/philosophies ..

There's a Science behind it.
You have to be 'wired' for it, in order to 'Perceive'.

Otherwise, it's STILL a Good thing, because it {supposedly-- I don't know the rules of ALL the religions} teaches about "the golden-rules." Which means "Doing The Right Thing". Having a Good Conscience.

It also provides better functioning during HARSH times that DO come in the lifetime of a person-- if it's centered around Goodness, and enduring, and re-framing towards the more-positive viewpoint of events...
'This too shall pass?' {scripture}

I don't know how others cope.. without that inner-strength and Believing in something Higher than their self.

Not every human-brain has the wired-capacity for spirituality. There's science that backs 'how' that works.

Religion {depending} can be 'good' for society.

GOD exists.. but not every person perceives, until they have some kind of Awakening.

It is possible to know "about" God,
and never ever know God, at all.
Know 'those-folk' by their behaviors/fruits.

Religious education leads to Higher Spirituality for those whom have been given the capacity for it at some point in their lifetime.

A WHOLE Other World, from which to Make a Difference.

Be Blessed.

Got to Be Taught? ..

To me--
People who decide to act according to what they decide for themselves is correct, is what presents clear danger-- neo-Nazi, nationalists, Hate Groups-- getting influence in government and the courts, redefining what is Right? Calling *them* the innocents?????

Doing what was 'right' in their own eyes, people with war-rifles/knives/speeding-vehicles/poisons/explosives, killing folks-- who were in a church/temple/mosque praying, or at a normal music concert, or in a school to learn, or on a sidewalk.

I watched the movie To Kill A Mockingbird for the first time in my life a few weeks ago.

I am STILL astonished and appalled that the 'jury of whitemen supposed-human-peers' decided "together" to lie against an innocent man because of PIGMENT. And THAT was called 'justice' because a group of grossly-errored prejudiced folks 'agreed-together' against the Truth.
