There are dozens, maybe hundreds of religions around the world.
But from what I've seen there is only a few "types".
The biggest "type" is the our guy had the straight dope from the almighty so we gotta do what he said or else.
But this "type" is split up into which guy the follow, then subdivided more times.
Those subdivisions range from lax except at their religious holidays, to real vehement assholes.
Because of this disparity I'm glad I found out how this happened.
Now you know.

Unaffiliated goes right along with public behavior these day.
Religion was a big help in making people behave due to peer pressure.
People being naughty would try to be sneaky about it to avoid that pressure.
Now without that chance of tsk tsked by peers, they're being naughty in front of impressionable youth
and setting a very low bar for public behavior.
