A key reason why the church suppressed education for such a long time in what is now referred to as the dark ages.

If intelligent people were able to read the source material then they would learn what utter shite they were being fed.

Fortunately for religious organisations we now live in a society where most people are able to read the source material but choose not to and blindly follow the words spoken to them.
