Religion is a "tool" of the elites & the government for control and socialization of the people/masses. All nations and societies do this, in some form, all over the earth. This term "religion" includes all forms of mysticism, cults, monasteries, and the like.
The reason it is used is because religion has been an effective control "mechanism" throughout the centuries - almost from the beginning of time. The simple fact is that most humans are "followers" (like sheep), and have a need to be led. On the other hand, there are few leaders and even fewer "good" ones at that.
Remember, even Jesus Christ (who the Christian religion is based upon) himself took a "stand" against the dominant religions of his geographical region, during his short stay on this planet. I think Jesus would be "pissed off" at the farce of today's movement that claims to act in his name.
Take a "good look" at countries, around the world today, that are dominated by religion. Even some of those nations that have their nations & regions operated by a religious hierarchy. Many of those areas are some of the most "fucked up" places in the world and "backwards" as hell!
There are on almost every continent and include every religion you can think of. Many tragedies have been carried out throughout history - with many common people "doing" most of suffering.
The Crusades, the Catholic Church's history of persecution, the Spanish Inquisition, Jewish intolerance of stupid, the Quakers and similar groups in North America (especially when the first settlements were being established), Iranian & Taliban Islam today. The list goes on & on.
The leadership in these locations and times in history know exactly what they doing - when using this institution for control. So, that You will behave, controlled, and be afraid to "speak up", "act out", and threaten their power. Power that the common person gave to them willingly and those leaders use against you.
Think about it, ministers and preachers (like lawyers, judges, bureaucrats, politicians, etc.) do Not produce anything tangible to society. They do Not have a "real" job and are "leeches" and usually live in better homes, drive nicer cars, etc., than the groups they "oversee" and from the funds provided to them by their "congregations/subjects". Congregations made up of most middle and lower class individuals that are productive, but have subjected themselves to these criminals. They use the tactic of guilt to perpetrate this situation with empty promises of a better future - however, that better future never arrives, Not in this life anyway.
Some these religions, even today, want their societies to revert back in history (& Not progress) to a simpler time. That is because a "simpler" people is easier and cheaper to manipulate.
If I ran my country, I would ban all religions. All churches would be used, destroyed, & converted to low income housing. All religious assets would sold off for the "real" benefit of society.
One can "worship" and pay respects without formal "bullshit" religions. In some languages religion is defined as a man-made organization with rules, rituals, habits, and behaviors created by people - Not by God or a "higher being".
