    Not in a religious way.

    All evidence points to religion being about control of the poor. For example, the Christian old testament was originally written in a language the poor could not read, and translating it was illegal. And almost all have a group at the top profiting off the many that have much less.

      For all of its existence, Religion has never been anything more than a tool of oppression and control. and to give righteous justification when they executed violence in their favor.
