I think we should step away from religion. It's superstitious nonsense. Some values taught and held sacred by religion are archaic, absurd, and have been demonstrated to be harmful. Religion teaches people a mentality to accept ideas without thinking and to unjustly discriminate against others. People learn a narrow minded and short sighted perspective which they have been known to defend violently, and still protect aggressively. Religion impedes science and art, stifling the development of our collective cultures and hindering the progress of the human species. Ultimately, religion should be abandoned because it's conceivably fake.
The fact that there is more than one major world religion disproves them all. Consider this: Christianity holds itself to be the one, true religion. If this is true, than every other religion is false. Why then do these other religions exist and how can it be that some are as large and powerful as they are without a god? This definitively proves that religion doesn't need to be real to be successful. Religion - Christianity at least, is self-refuting.
