God gave us the Bible, His Word, to teach us how to live. He really wants us to be happy...He made us, so He should know what really will make us happy. We are fooled into thinking otherwise.

No, not at all.
I think that even with religion mankind would manage to find a way to created a structure of behavior that is deemed acceptable.

Yes. Some of these folks are freakin' me out, too. Not all religious groups do this, however. Many have become more free-thinking, progressive, and more importantly, united in world philosophies.
Learn as much as you can. It's a big world out there.

Yes, religion, by its nature, tries to control people. It uses emotional manipulation of human insecurities to gain and control converts.
