Religions are authoritarian systems, that's why violence and warfare were required to subjugate the tribes of Europe. Just as it required violence and warfare to subjugate the tribes of the americas.
Huh??? Religion spans an array of structures and types. The current Aglican church is non-centralized and per its website:
"There is a structure for doctrinal centralization, but in the absence of central authority the doctrine is followed by consensus and not by mandate."
Sounds like a real authoritarian system... So, by definition your premise fails which, of course, calls into question your conclusion.
