You make some quite good points about the abuse of religion and negative impact of forced "belief". You also draw similarities between KATG and organised religions - this association due to the basic tribal instinct of humans rather than Keith being the new Messiah. Sports supporters enjoy the same feeling of belonging or following.
You will probably find that those who follow organised religions enjoy benefits not always obvious to outsiders, and no amount of mocking will take that away, as they come from the individual's internal value system. This is true whether the individual has thought and understood about their belief or not. I guess the same can be true of following a sports team or podcast.
I appreciate that you are debating this subject rather than blindly bashing.
