Religion becomes a farce when the belief systems are controlled by people with motives.
Explanation:
Religion, especially organised religion is so easy to control for a few people for their own benefit that it becomes about the outlook of the people that run it and not necessarily a pious way of life that their god would propagate.
Thus, the religion often becomes a farce when it comes down to strategies of amusing god or finding ways around non permissible laws which are sanctioned by priests for money or power.
The vying for a structure in religion is itself a down fall of all religions and makes it a creed.
