25% of Russia is Muslim now. Putin the Chabad Jew fucked his countrymen over. Terrorist attacks increase during Ramada. Russia is a shithole.
Humanity is a joke to begin with. Will always require a leader one way or another. Eventually the dynasty will get corrupted. Rinse repeat this shithole until the end of time. So I guess if that's the game then might as well become the Ruler myself.
Religion is a form of control in the first place. Just another form of control. Don't need it to understand God or Jesus. Mostly you just have to use your eyeballs.
