Religion: a tool for the ruling class to keep the population under control?
#19
RE: Religion: a tool for the ruling class to keep the population under control?
"To what extent do you see organised religion as an institution to give the ruling classes power over the general population?"

We do not have to imagine a secret cabal of politicians devising evil religious schemes for this to be true. Politicians (Trump, Clinton, Obama) who exaggerate their allegiance to Christianity in order to not alienate the believing is proof enough.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
