No. Modern feminism is a critique of tyrannical forces in society. bell hooks, for example, doesn't talk solely about patriarchal men, but also patriarchal women, and how both contribute to patriarchy, which is a tyrannical system just as much as matriarchy is. Actually decent feminists are interested in deepening the emotional bonds between men and women and approach things in a more psychoanalytical sense, instead diagnosing various mental illnesses which get in the way of intimacy and happiness.

Example: men are not more sexual than women, and lusting after women is not natural for men. This is the result of a patriarchal society which has 1) sexually repressed women and 2) emotionally damaged men, teaching them to hate themselves as part of their disciplinary education in childhood, which in turn creates a fear of vulnerability and thus intimacy, warping love into various perversions, like Freud's Madonna—whore complex.

No. Religion is the culminating output of a particular intellectualism stemming from a particular genetic composition. A "people" sharing a particular genetic bond create stories together to express their will, which come together to create a religion for future generations.
