Control is one way memes propagate. The meme need not be false to require a means of propagation. Yahweh could be real and the way to spread that knowledge might still benefit from appealing to the mechanism of control. You've mistaken a value added part of religion for a necessary one. Control isn't necessary, but it is useful.
