Nope, its there for people who exist but dont know why. It is there for order, or else we'd all be worse than animals as all animals follow their set way in nature. Man is the only one who can make his own rules.

Religion can be one of the three ways one can gain control in a society. besides this religion is a way for people to explain the workings of the universe, what happens after death, when to plant and harvest crops, etc.etc. so if anything it is for people who are existing rather than who are scared of existing.

I don't think you're right there. I mean, you don't just say 'I'm scared of existing, hence I'm going to become religious'. People are religious because people around them are religious, and it's something that they've been brought up with. In a more general sense, people are religious because they need guidance and faith, also they don't want to believe that when they die, that's the end of it all.

religion is for people who aware of all kind of existances...
people who dont believe in religions is people who scared of themselves and world...
even though they said there is no such thing as religion or god, they still create and asking a lot of questions about it... why?
maybe because this people still curious and scared if what they think is correct or vice versa....

No. Religion is for those who wish to exist as they were created to exist. Without religion reality becomes confusing. May the Lord bless and keep you. May He let the light of His face shine upon you.

Paradox,
It might be for the peoplle who live up to the idea about them dying. You know, like the kids in the world acting like they are immortal, and then they just die like everyone else.

Religion is man's attempt to cover HIMSELF for his own iniquity. Jesus was anti-religious. That is why he argued with the Pharisees.

religion is just an illusion people take on to satisfy their need to live forever because nobody wants to die
