Lol, as if most of them ever see any of those.
Some do, and more will over time. Just because we cannot help everybody doesn't mean we should refrain from helping anybody.
There's a reason poor people are more religious. They apparently need it a lot more, and usually haven't got the education to make up their own religion.
I would say that religion flourishes with the poor because it
tries to. Poor people are, as the name would suggest, poor. Like you said, they don't recieive as high of an educational standard, but it doesn't have to do with "making up their own religion". It has to do with being exposed to rational arguments about the subject of religion and making their own choices, rather than having the faith of their parents perpetuated upon them and knowing nothing else.
I'm not "advocating" anything, I'm just saying that organised religion usually finds fertile ground to grow in places where "hope" is far away. If you disagree with organised religion, what do you propose as a substitute?
Education and actual help from other people instead of religion-backed promises that almost never pan out and take all of the credit on the off-chance that they do. People in bad situations are capable of helping themselves, they just need to be given the chance.
