I’m not meaning dump 20,000 children alone in the left half of Wyoming, I mean, keep them with their parents, hire teachers, teach them math and science and…basically a history that replaces a lot of “and they believed their gods said” with “the ruling class decided they wanted to”. What happens to children when they are raised in a functioning, supportive, nurturing society that does not contain religion or superstition?
I’m pretty sure that they would start making one up very soon.

Many developed countries are majoritarily irreligious. But it’s also hard to draw the line between religion and culture.
