The premise of the second half of your question is entirely incorrect. I suspect you know that though.
Correct, I don’t think God meant for his creation to be reduced to slavery, rather it is the leaders of organized religion, the corrupt men at the top, they’re not men of God, they’re the ones for their own selfish reasons try to use religion to control the masses just as our present evil marxist Pope does and peole like you eat up everything they say like a starving Big Mouth Bass, and those people don’t want people like you to think, they want you to blindly believe, they want you to be a slave to them. So it is the unholy scumbags that are worshipped as men of God whom are the problem along with a lot of dumb people who don’t think, they’ve corrupted religion and that corruption started a long time ago.
