You're right in your hatred of christiantiy. This idiot doesn't even see his own authoritarian bullshit when he threatens your soul with "hell".
But I must correct you in saying Religion was necessary to keep people from evil. The old religions didn't preach morality, insofar as there were lessons that there are consequences for your actions.
The Old Gods promoted justice and taught us legal systems to be used with honorable people, but also instructed brutality was needed when enemies were at the gate.
You're half right tho. Christianity was made to control people. But the old religions which taught us practical spiritual routines and gifts were simply for advancing humanity, not control.
