It produces simulacra of salvation. The best part is the transfers of genuine physical cargo to the Vatican and its clients as part of the ritualistic cargo plane simulacrum. Now isn't that a coup? Adherents gulls and marks transfer goods and services to useless layabouts in return for the layabouts promising invisible and unverifiable services.
"No no you don't have to do anything self-directed or risky or genuine like engage with divinity, you just need to let me bore you to death once a week and give me all your spare money and power."
As per my usual mein, this is a supply and demand situation. Christianity is correct; humanity is inherently evil. Humanity gets these cargo cults because the Earth is one gigantic disgusting slum full of loathsome unrepentant (and irredeemable) traitors who deserve to be fleeced of their life savings.
And hey, look at that.
Naturally, all State religions end up cargo cults in this reverse vein. Roman temples got tax funds, and this also happened to them. Humanity deserves State religions because it keeps producing States.
If you don't want to deserve it, secure yourself against Humanity. Secure yourself against twisted Caino hypocriens governments. They're dumb enough to fall for cargo cults, it's not difficult.
