On my side, the situation is reversed. I used hearing Christians (usually formal ones, belonging to a certain Church or Denomination) that a human has to accept/believe, based on faith, many heavenly secrets which are beyond human's reasoning. In other words, they are supposed to believe that Jesus came to add secrets (as in Pagan's religions), not to add (while having the Heavenly knowledge) useful information about how the world is designed to run (by revealing the crucial natural truths about Life's Reality).
So, it was normal for the moderators of Christian forums to ban me (usually by using a clever hidden way provided by new internet functions) when I start showing how Jesus, the all-knowledge teacher, saved my ignorance. Yes, ignorance is the greatest weakness which a human can have, and every human baby (including I) is born with. Naturally, I didn't blame any of those Christian moderators because saying that Jesus is an all-knowledge teacher instead of THE PROMISED SAVIOR (like in magic) sounds to them a serious blasphemy (after all, they are right because this is against the interests of the powerful rich people running their Churches in the name of Jesus).
Now you know why I enjoy being among atheists.
There is small enough evidence that Jesus even existed, but there is no evidence that he was an all-knowing teacher (nor that he as God and Savior).
I don't agree with your conspiracy theories of elites, but I do think that the fundamental purpose of any hierarchical religion is growth and control. It certainly isn't truth.
