They impose artificial rules, which are contrary to human nature, and therefore are impossible to live by.
First you've established the concept of "Sin".
Thereafter the concept of "Repentance" is established,
Therafter the concept "Only through me"
And hey presto you've got a nice hierarchy in place to have the dumb sheep, that believe in all that, do anything you want, including things which any sane person would classify as objectively horrible evil, like the burning of unbelievers and holy crusades.
