She manipulated them, yes, but there's no reason at all to think she was manipulating them to become "sinners." Why would she need "sinners," as in people contracted to sin vessels, for an end goal?

We already know why she manipulated Gallerian--so she could gain all of the vessels and use them to become pure. The only reason she would even care about Gallerian becoming a contractor is that it makes him easier to control. As I recall it's also unclear the extent to which she manipulated Nemesis, and whether or not her end goal was what ended up happening.

Personally I agree with HouseofAustrich on Gallerian's view of the doll. He had to know Michelle wasn't completely human when he needed a third party just to hear her voice.
