This work examines religion as a psychological and social structure rooted in fear, violence, control, guilt, hierarchy, and identity. It argues that humanity often projects its own inner conflicts onto the idea of God and then uses religion to justify domination, obedience, exclusion, and moral superiority. Rather than focusing on one tradition, the text critiques the common structures shared across religions and asks whether awareness, rather than belief, is necessary for a more humane existence.
