Religion invented by women

I was reading the Dilbert Future today and read the statement that women must have invented Religion as a way of controlling man.
Now I thought that this was rubbish until I had a shower. This is my usual thinking place and my brain was stuck on this idea. Could it be true ? Well let's think of some examples:

  1. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Women wanted at least one day off a week and so the Sabbath was invented.
  2. Honour thy father and thy mother. So honouring involves 50% of people who happen to be women.
  3. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Stop shagging around and have sex with only me (said the woman).
  4. Thou shall not steal. My collection of humourous naked fat children that say 'Love is...' all over them (said the woman).
  5. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's. Especially his ass because I didn't marry a man who covets asses. And don't get me started on either his wife or maidservant.
I may have missed out some of the commandments but none of the important ones.
