Any blind admiration to those so called idols is a kind of religion if we know clearly about the definition for religion.
Looking at World War Two Nazi Germany, Stalin’s Soviet Union and Mao’s crazy Cultural Revolution, it’s not hard for normal people to make a sound judgment for the damage and madness caused by blind admiration.
“It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.”

The mixture of religion and politics is dangerous.
“When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movements become headlong - faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thoughts of obstacles and forget the precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's too late.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

Suggest LZ know more about the separation of church and state in the west.
Quite shocking LZ wrote such an article. If LZ are interesting in Western politics, please start from Plato's The Republic...
