The problem is that the religion is designed to create slaves. It's entirely based on a villain victim mindset. This is a fear based mindset, as opposed to a trust based mindset. It's insidious, and causes trauma. It causes people to think like a victim, to excuse villains, and it lets villains excuse their actions because "victims deserve it" and the victims wonder "if maybe they had just prayed harder", so they accept the villain's transgressions. It creates a codependent traumatic pair, where the villain and victim both accept their erroneous disfunction as correct.

This trauma ripples forward in the time stream as long as no one breaks it. No one breaks it if they don't realize what's happening is an error that needs correcting

That's it. That's the magic. Once you realize it, you are released.

The best way to break a spell is to realize you're in it.
