Defend? As a Sufi I try to mind my own things, so your opinion is your opinion.
But you dont give any depth of your statements about religions.
Spiritual practice is about the heart, not about materialistic objects.
leaders have nice life , nice buildings, not care poor normal people , lies they tell for people give money who havent got money

My teacher does not own anything personally, even my self i own less than 30 objects in this lifetime.
How and why some leaders chose to have "rich lifestyle " is not from the religious teachings.
Time is all you got , leaders not free time
Your teacher teaching what he was taught to teach to keep control of the stupid

My teacher teaches a way to understand God,
By the way you just called me stupid
thats funnyDidn't call you stupidMy teacher teaches a way to understand God,
By the way you just called me stupid
God might not be real , people taught and think God real , adds to the point about control

I don't think the main purpose of religion is controlling people. Rather I think that human beings have a basic drive to connect with the divine, which they intuit. Even chimpanzees dance during thunder storms.

Have you ever been to any house of worship to see what good it does to people?
Last time i saw charity from religious people was today
Religious people not billion pound leaders
house of worship does what ? when does house of worship help the poor and needy ?

Where I live multiple houses of worship help the homeless and sick every day, they even work together with different religious groups from Christianity, Muslims, Baha'i, Buddhists and so on.
For people who seek God they can go in to the house of worship and pray, discuss, gain new wisdom about their faith.

Thats a fallacy of composition. Hope you understand.
You mean normal people who are under the control of religion help the homeless and sick or you saying the leaders directly house the homeless and feed them and help the sick medical bills ?
two differences

Spiritual lifestyle is about being there for othets, having compassion and forberance toward all people.
