Whats up with mass religion

I believe if you convince people that the only source of food is mac donald they will not even be able to conceive the idea you can purchase food in other ways or derive it from agriculture or hunting.
And once a people is detached fully from the process of getting food their mind will forever depend on the construct of mac donald.
I discussed with poor people, these ones acting miserable with the poorman identity. One admitted his diet was mac food only. Theres some burgers that cost 1 buck, others 3.50 bucks.
I remembered when I was in university and food costed me 150 a month. It is true prices increased but today I would spend 250 a month.
Theres ways, like you can go at caritas or free meal distributions. Or you can purchase near-expiration meat. Or use more beans and pasta. Just eating pasta and milk you get to spend not much. Egg, milk, pasta, these things make you save money which is why is such a tragedy when egg prices go up.
Other than that, this construct of mac donald makes me wonder if this is the same with mass religion for the masses. A religion constructed as a mass slop. Do we really need it? Maybe the need was created artificially, like mac donald. And once people got accustomed to it, they lost their senses and lost the ability to invent new religions. These abilities were previously present, but the human mind adapts to solutions offered cheaply, eventually losing the skill it once had.
it is possible to build tech that ruins our own bodies. We can build tech that maks life so easy we become dumb and stop solving problems because we assume all problems have been solved already. Or we make tech so good we dont do any more physical exercise so we become fat and dumb. And religion is a technology, a form of social tech. Once it comes, with ready made copy and paste "answers" and questions also given to the young minds, then the human simply decides to lose a skill he could have had on his own.
The adult mind will not even conceive of the possibility he can be inventive or imaginative, if all is given on a silver platter I think the result is a zombie adulterated by dystopian tech.
