What you are asking requires a rather subjective answer; that is people's opinions. To be objective you would have to consider the facts, and facts are not something that come easily to religion v. Atheism debates.

In the opinion of a religion: It is not "controlling" people, it is showing people the right path and showing them what not to do.

In the opinion of atheism:Religions do indeed use fear to control the masses, religion is a scam and doesn't have a use in our modern day scientific society.

My opinion: People can choose to believe what ever they want, it is their mind. Other people do not have the right to infringe upon other's free will.

Why does religion affect everyone?

A:By definition, religions affect those who practise their religions. Religion also affects those who are forced to remain quiet about the fact that they follow a minority religion or have no religion at all, since the need to remain quiet is at least an implicit form of persecution. It affects everyone in society whenever politicians pass laws based on their own religious beliefs or the beliefs of lobbyists. Religion affects everyone whenever it is used as an excuse for intolerance, disharmony or war. On the positive side, religion also affects people when it provides resources or organisation to help with relief of suffering.
