Hmm, interesting. Christianity promoted the beta males into alpha males. A beta male buys into a rule of monogamy and "headship." Sunday after Sunday, he pays clerics to broadcast an idea: every male has supreme status in home and family. Absurd on its face, but the clerics put on a show and claim divine status--so women become convinced.

It's amazing the amount of power one can acquire by pointing to someone and telling them they're "bad."
