I don&#x27;t think this is set out to undermine religion.  Believers will believe despite strong contrary evidence, if anything, it redoubles their beliefs.<p>That said, if scholarly religious studies or any studies undermine the great religions and lesser religions, all the better.  We&#x27;ll all be better off without fervent believers.  I understand the cultural aspect of these religions will outlast religion and I&#x27;m okay with that. It&#x27;s part of people&#x27;s cultural identities.<p>I don&#x27;t think for example, we should start renaming all the &quot;San&#x2F;Santa xxxxxx&quot; city names to secular names.
