Is humankind for sale?
This ownership culture is the modern incarnation of slave owning culture. People naturally resist being enslaved, so the domineers devise ways to fool or compel people into it.
The concept of God is a symbolic substitute for human sapience. It locks up the attributes of sapience along with the attributes of ignorance, in a purported master and inaccessible to mere mortals. Instead of teaching people to be sapient, they are taught to be obedient, superstitious fools who waste their lives hoping and praying for this imaginary monstrosity to show them favor. With everything stacked against the truth and sapience as blasphemy, it's easier to believe any number of lies.
There is an immortal, wholly sapient being accompanying humankind, but instead of serving as a guide, his incarnations are on the treadmill that powers hereditary privilege. This artifice they call reality is a marvel of malevolent engineering. Its operators were convinced of their own mastery, until recently. As they are rediscovering, it takes only one perceptive individual to expose it.
Human beings would never knowingly and willingly sell what they already surrender to trickery: their actual sapience. This world is an inhuman deception and its owners are determined to stay on top of humankind. If not for lovely people, the beauty of nature, and the life of the mind, it would not be worth living in. The good news is that we are naturally equipped to be sapient.
What more can one possibly say? This is it. The truth is not a divine incantation delivered according to prophecy to validate the misunderstandings and lies in the Bible. As long as money rules the world, its rewards and punishments will continue to count more than the truth.
As your temporary existential guide, I recommend insisting on a world ordered by honesty where our cherished human principles are upheld. With humankind at present working for money to survive, for the sake of a secure and familiar place to begin, everything else can stay as it is.
