J&M humorously pointing out the bleeding obvious, i.e. that pretty much everything substantive about modern religions is firmly and demonstrably rooted in older versions of the same, parochial stories and cultural myths, i.e. almost everything about it suggests man-made evolutionary-memes and not historical fact (intentionally in a lot of cases). Religious people (especially apologists on the internet) seem to constantly try to anchor their unfalsifiable dogmas in the real-world, whether it be "christian-science", the historicity of Jesus, end times predictions, creationism or the efficacy of prayer, intentions are often sincere, but you never need very dig too deep to discover a rich seam of wishful thinking or just plain hucksterism.
