There's no religion, it's called an relationship with God. No one should control other people, you can give them advice, but that guy/girl has that final decision.

Religion may not be the best way to control people, but it's powerful.

IMVNO, hunger is a more powerful drive. Sex is no weakling either.

No

once was, especially when religion and government were intertwined but with the exception of Islam, not really anymore.
I think political ideology may do a better job these days.

Actually it's just the fear of the unknown and the exploitation of that fear that is the best control.

At least in my religion, my religion is more of a lifestyle choice rather than a scare tactic, I'm allowed to do what I want.
