Ok...but does that make it fake? I contend it does not. Religion and belief are so amorphous that it can be whatever, whomever decides that it is. How many sects of Christianity are there? Which ones are fake? islam? Which ones are fake? It's all in the interpretation.Catholics have a very long tradition of blessing inanimate objects. Popes and Cardinals blessed the swords of the crusaders. This is nothing new.

Well, that says more about what religion was.... the question is has it changed in the modern era? No, it's still used to justify the unjustifiable.
