Would it be fair to say that like any other man-made institution, religion can be used for good or ill but that the supernatural aspect of worshiping an all-powerful, universal, omni-present entity of some sort, enables those who commit evil to do even more so? Would it also be fair to recognise that having an exalted someone or something up there to relieve us of personal responsibility is a very compelling notion?
