I don't think everything in the Bible is about control. Religion, defined as abdicating self-responsibility, always is.

I don't understand the point I guess. In order to even have a population be able to live in at least somewhat harmony, what 'isn't' control?
I'd say the golden rule covers it. Control is forcing someone to do something without their consent. It is the application of force or threats of force. If nonconsensual interaction is necessary for society, I want no part of it.
So then you would agree (in politics today) that Socialism is wrong?
