The power of religion is the superstitious belief in a magical being that controls or creates things or phenomena that the ignorant or lazy can not immediately explain by simple observation. This often leads to widespread fear, ignorance and violence in the name of said magical being for no better purpose than personal power by individuals or organizations preying on the ignorant or weak.

In short the power of religion is the same as the power of oppression by fear with a side effect of allowing laziness and ignorance to replace work and knowledge.
