    In catholic circles it’s more like: “Don’t read the bible, you don’t have the proper toolset and knowledge to understand. Come to church, we’ll explain it to you and leave out the bits we don’t like.”

    “Oh, and while you’re there, make sure to put some money in the box we pass around. That is before you put money in the other box to touch our fancy cross. And after you put money in the other other box to light a candle.”

      You are forgetting that The Bible is written (new Testament at least) after Christ’s death. Therefore The Bible itself is written by a political organisation.
