I was speaking to how religions start and grow at a grassroots level, and how you need a message that strongly resonates with our core humanity in order for a religion to find legs. To take the next steps into becoming a dominant religion does require a religion that coalesces it's people into a stable power base that can be wielded by the ruling class for expansion.
