One of the comments:
If it weren't religion, humans would find other reasons to control and punish others. It is convenient for us to blame the wishes of deity when we treat others badly.

In 2020-22, the New Zealand government enacted emergency laws, mandates and a medical passport system that caused thousands of New Zealanders to lose their jobs, businesses, homes and health.
When those people protested, they were ignored by their own government and media and demonized by their representatives as "a river of filth".
This is their story, in their own words.
Push is a 2009 thriller film directed by Paul McGuigan & written by David Bourla. The film centers on people with superhuman abilities who band together to take down a government agency that is using a dangerous drug to enhance their powers in the hope of creating an army of super soldiers.
In 1945 the USA government sets up The Division,an agency that tracks & experiments on people with psychic abilities. Each psychic is categorized into a group based on what powers they have. Two Movers teenager Nick Gant and his father Jonah, are hiding from Division agent Henry Carver. Jonah tells Nick about a vision he received from a Watcher about a young girl Nick must help in the future to bring down Division. Nick watches Carver murder Jonah before he escapes.
Years later The Division has developed a drug that can boost psychic abilities. All of the test subjects died until an unknown female Pusher successfully adapted to it. The woman escapes from The Division & steals a syringe of the drug before fleeing to Hong Kong a common hiding place for psychics. Nick now lives in Hong Kong as an expatriate but is in trouble due to gambling debts he incurred while attempting to use his power as a Mover to cheat the games. Nick is first visited by two Division agents who are looking for leads on the escaped female patient but they find none. Nick is visited immediately after by Cassie, a moody teenage Watcher who wants Nick to help her in tracking down the woman who is supposed to have a case with six million dollars inside. While pleading her case to Nick they are attacked by the Triads at a market & Nick is severely wounded by a Bleeder before the pair can escape. After being separated Cassie finds an unconscious Nick in the care of a Stitch named Teresa Stowe who owes a favor to Cassie's mother and was told to be in the market at the exact day & time they were attacked. She heals Nick's wounds to repay her debt to Cassie's mother while also taunting Cassie about her mother's current captivity. Her mother is considered the strongest Watcher ever born & was detained by The Division to ensure their control over her abilities. Unbeknownst to them, her mother was the patient who directly helped the female Pusher escape. After talking to Cassie about her past & her most recent drawings Nick realizes she is the girl his father saw in his vision & decides to help her find the woman as well as the briefcase containing the stolen goods.
Nick & Cassie use her abilities to track down the woman who is actually Nicks ex-girlfriend Kira. Kira hid the case & then had a Wiper erase her memory of its location protecting it from Division agents. Nick recruits a Shadow named Pinky to hide Kira from Carver & other Division agents. Cassie attempts to foresee the case's location competing with the Triad Watcher Pop Girl. As Kira begins to get sick from withdrawal Nick learns that Kira will get sicker & eventually die without more of the drug which only Carver has & realizes he must meet with Carver to save her life. Victor a talented Mover & Carvers assistant, battles Nick & nearly kills him before Cassie convinces Carver to spare him. Cassie then finds a key in Kira's shoe which unlocks a locker atop a construction site where the case is hidden.
Knowing that both Division & Triad Watchers can see their every move Nick proposes an elaborate plan to obtain the drug & eliminate their enemies. He creates several envelopes containing instructions for each of his friends including the Shifter called Hook Waters & the Sniff called Emily. Nick seals each envelope & gives them to his friends before hiring the Wiper who erased Kira's memory to do the same to him. With his memory wiped the Watchers are unable to see his future enabling the group to execute Nicks plan. Hook locates the case & creates a duplicate of it and the syringe while Pinky delivers Kira to Carver as part of the plan. Carver then pushes her into believing she is actually a Division agent & her relationship with Nick was a lie.
Cassie is confronted by Pop Girl only for the Wiper to appear & erase Pop Girl's memory per Nick's instructions. Nick visits Carver & discovers Kira's brainwashing. They travel to the construction site where Carver unknowingly retrieves the fake case but the Triads arrive & attempt to steal the case. A battle erupts which leads to the Triad Bleeders being killed. Nick uses his newly discovered Mover power to battle Victor. The Triad leader uses his Bleeder powers & kills Victor when the young Bleeder dies. After using the opportunity to kill the Triad leader, Nick seizes the fake syringe & Carver allows him to inject himself with it apparently dying. After Kira & Carver leave Cassie appears & reveals Nick is alive. They retrieve the real case & syringe from a dumpster & discuss using it to free Cassie's mother from Division who might have planned the whole thing years before Cassie was born.
Kira discovers her discovers her relationship with Nick was real
