LOL. That's an interesting observation. And quite true at that. I think it all comes down to that fundamental human instinct to prosper no matter what the consequences or how many (sometimes also human) sacrifices and obstacles have to be surpassed. Yet I think there's still some basic difference to criminal gangs and anything that's being brought together legally. Yes, it's true most people use crimina activity to achieve their goals, but there are also people that consider the sheer act of doing something forbiden a drug. A criminal act (beside the obvious possible financial gain) is also a slap in the face to society and that could be a big lure for some individuals. It is one of the basic three phenomenons that contributes to establishments of criminal gangs (besides financial gains and the sense of belonging for those who don't seem to function in a normal society).

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
