People often act in their own worst interests. Religion is way worse than Marx's crutch, it is an evil that controls. Religion creates zombie followers.
But, sadly and unfortunately there are ever so many who relish such an Overseer ideology, an Overseer with cruel, barbaric, misogynistic, etc, attitudes that would make even the most ardent of Nazis seem like Angels in comparison.
Our innate attachment to strong, typically male, figures such as a father or alpha leader got us here. The feelings of safety and security that are felt when in the presence of such personages reinforced this behavior. Younglings that didn't stay close did not survive to reproduce.
But genetic propensities are easily hijacked by religious groups, political strongmen, gang leaders and even by our own, insufferable family members or friends.
