The answer is SATAN

this system of the world is in the power of satan but god is always in control
so the people who are blaming god for the mess in the world, its satan not god,
Christianity itself is the anti-Christ religion warned of.

I agree with that, but for different reasons than the ones you gave.
It goes back to the garden of eden, where there was a "tree" of the knowledge of BOTH good and evil. People skip right over the "good" part of the equation and focus on the evil part.
It also goes back to the complete sovereignty of God. CHristians do not believe God is sovereign. They say it, but they don't believe it.
THey have to see evil as some kind of force outside of God, because then otherwise, to their minds, God is also does evil.

Don't you see the contradiction in that?
NOw if you say that God controls Satan, then you might have a point. Either God is all powerful, or not.

Please provide book, chapter and verse(s) to support that.

God always has control, although for a time he is letting Satan, test man
