You're invoking the exact same dialectic logic the satanists want the world to believe.
That religion is somehow only a 'response' to a previous 'more fundamental' or 'more primary' doctrine of evil.
You have it backwards.
Evil is itself a response and rebellion against the One Source. It doesn't precede.
The 'problem solution device' isn't evil first then church, it's god first and then invocations of DIVISION WITHIN CREATION so deceivers can fake role play God.
