The politicization of religion is most closely associated with the worldwide trend toward

A) fragmentation

B) globalization

C) marketizatio

D) democratzaation

A. Fragmentation.

Explanation:

Politicization of religion is not a good work to perform in any country. It makes a division among the people because different people have different perspective of taking the religion.

Including politics in the religious belief promotes the riots and fragmentation among the people. We have been seeing the examples in many places of India and Pakistan.

So the politics and religious belief shouldn't be mixed for the harmony and peace among the citizens.
