Organized patriarchal religion is the underpinning for patriarchy --

it's a primary tool of conquest from this continent and the Native American

to today's fake GOP/Fundamentalist movement which opposes human rights for women,

homosexuals and others they identify as "inferior" -- i.e., people of other races

and competing creeds.

Keep in mind US also created the VIOLENT Islamic movement and spread it into the

Middle East!

Without organized patriarchal religion's "Manifest Destiny" and "Man's Dominion Over

Nature"
which are the licenses for the elite to exploit nature, animal-life, natural

resources -- and even other human beings according to various myths of "inferiority"

-- where would patriarchy be?

Obviously, what those elite males who wanted a male-supremacist society where they could

exploit others needed was aunquestionable "one male god" who would vouch for their superiority!!

And here we are tens of thousands of years after male violence turned the world upside down

and settled into "Introducing the Sword With The Cross" . . .


The answer is that it's a threat to patriarchy . . . .
