-Virus was originally
created to compete with the traditional (irrational) religions in the human [ideosphere] with the idea that it would introduce and propagate [meme]s which would ensure the survival and evolution of our species. The main advantage conferred upon adherents is Virus provides a conceptual framework for leading a truly [meaningful life] and attaining [immortality] without resorting to mystical delusions.

__Overview__
Virus is a collection of mutually-supporting ideas (a [meme-complex]) encompassing philosophy, science, technology, politics, and religion. The core ideas are based on [evolution] and [memetics] because one of the primary design goals was survivability through adaptation (religions die, not because they grow old, but because they become obsolete). If a new [religion] is designed around the premise of continuously integrating better (more accurate, more useful) concepts while ensuring the survival of its believers, it could conceivably achieve true [immortality].
