A person needs to look beyond the theology or myths of
theisms and understand that those theisms are a social phenomena.

Theisms as ideological systems are certainly cultural products, and,
thus, can be examined by sociology and psychology.

Can objective study determine whether a theism is harmful to
individuals or society in general?

The crucial philosophical question is whether the theoretical objects
of those systems correspond to anything real or not.

Theisms aren't required to be logical and correspond to reality, so why
bother?
