In my experience, religion is cited to in both situations in large number.
Same can be said for government, the legal system, marriage, and probably several other pillars of western civilization.
It’s probably not a good idea to just throw institutions and frameworks completely in the trash can when they don’t always work quite right.

I don't disagree with you. Again, I don't call religion a cancer.
With that said, I'm no more inclined to call a person a moron because they say religion is a cancer any more than I would call them a moron for calling democracy a cancer. I can disagree with them and consider their position overly simplified to the point of error while still understanding where they are coming from.
