For those who believe religion isn't needed you are right. For those who say it is are right. For those who believe are never wrong, and never right. For those who don't believe are never wrong and never right. For in being wrong, they are right, and in being right they are wrong.

Though I am weary, there is truth to what I have said and done. Read it or not, I do not bother know. For sleep I must.

You don't prove that something is false, without any proof it should be assumed that religion isn't true.

You are an idiot. I just wanted to get that off my chest. So anyways... Religion is a group of people with a similar faith in what is unknown. What is unknown could be construed to be anything using rhetoric...so assuming that there are known things and then there are unknown things, and knowing how people get a little antsy when they do not know what is happening, the unknowns get filled up with faith--religion. No more uncomfortable unknown.
Is it real or false? I would have to say religion is a very real thing. YES.

People follow the religions because they are taught and made to believe 'as true' since their childhood, by their parents, teachers and communities. It can easily be proved as there is no child who is born in a certain family have other religion than its parents' or the comminity. There are a few who may change in higher age. Religions are for spiritual consolation and those who change do so for their consolation. Those who use their God gifted heads have douts about religions.

The proof is in the puddling. Do what is taught and see the results for yourself. If it is true then that religion must have some truth in what they teach. But most religions have turth and non-truth, so the best practice is to do the wholesome and avoid the unwholesome aspects. Leave the unexplanable to later. Your insights and realization will bring you there.

Religion is man's attempt to clothe himself in holiness. He does this by establishing certain rules and regulations to follow to get closer to God. In that regard, religion could be wrong.
The most anti-religious person who ever lived was Jesus Christ. He was against all the rituals that the religious leaders of His day imposed. The Pharisees would recite prayers by the hours while in view of the people, just so they could show how holy they were. Christ said we shouldn't pray as the pharisees did, but we should talk to our Father.
Man's first attempt at religion came in the Garden of Eden. After they sinned, Adam and Eve covered themselves with fig leaves. The fig leaves were their way of covering their sin. We still have fig leaves today in a sense. We used church attendance, good works, altruism, and other things to cover our sins, and make us closer to God. What did God do in the Garden? He replaced Adam and Eve's fig leaves with skins of animals.. In doing so, He showed that by innocent blood our sins will be forgiven. It was foreshadowing His eventual atoning death for us.
So religion is wrong when it imposes rules and rituals to get you closer to God. What you should have is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. And you need to find a good Bible believing church, so you can have fellowship with believing Christians.

religion is you, something that makes you you. its a way of living, a way of live. its not another way to judge people. People are all different, like religions are all different. We all have one thing in common, like all religions have one thing in common: god. Its not right or wrong, or true or false. Its all about following who you really are.

Faith has nothing to do with logic... Its a way of life. As for who is right, why dont you make up your own mind about this? No one can impose their beliefs on you. I blieve, I choose to! No one can impose deep beliefs, it comes from inside...
Religion is one thing. Realationship with the Jesus is another. I have a relationship... The door is open to every seeker. Its up to you!
God bless you!

Religion is personal. Faith is exceptional.
The Holy Bible is the Truth revealed by God.

If you'd stop being so serious, you could see what fun a fake religion can be!
