The desire for God is written in the human heart, because each person is created by God and for God; and God never ceases to draw each person to himself.
Most religions are men and women searching for God in all good faith.
Judaism and Christianity is God reaching out to women and men and what happens when we respond.
With love in Christ.

we don't need religion... that is the point if you look at the way cultures evolve they evolve according to their environements and according to their natural resources.. and how they learned to use these resources.... the also evolved accountable to nature for nature seeks to maintain a balance... it's called having a conscience... but how they evolved under religion they evolved murderers... war mongers... conquerers... without conscience needing only to say my religion justifies it.... that is why there is so much illness in the world today... people are getting sicker more easily.... stress beyond understanding... we are in the days where nature is fighting to regain control and re instill a balance... it now has the power to take away from religion what it stole.... so there is absolutely no purpose in religion... no need what so ever...

The Qur'an teaches us that the human race is given an innate spirituality are inherent in human existence,
but this spirituality can betray us if it is not led in the right direction. To depend on a merely human
feeling of the guiding Spirit is dangerous. Many groups, even cults, claim to be guided by the spirit or
by God or by revelation, yet these groups hold divergent, even contradictory, beliefs. We find people
behaving in contradictory ways who claim nonetheless that each is doing the will of God. "I feel," they
say, "that the spirit guides and directs me."
A credible source of revelation is imperative. Throughout history Allah has selected particular
individuals to convey His message, to receive His revelation and to exemplify it for mankind
God provides us with the purpose of our existence and if we seek to do good it is the same as seeking to do the will of God. Your belief in God only has value in so far as you live your life according to His purpose for you.
How then do we know what is the will of God? That is where religion comes in. GOD has revealed His will through prophets. To find out what this is you need to study the revelation.

Man "needs" religion to answer questions that he cannot answer with his five senses or reason. Examples: "Why am I here? Why am I alive? These questions cannot be answered with the five senses or reason so man turns to his imagination to find the answers to questions like this.

We don't, necessarily. They don't anything for us that couldn't be done by a sports team or a television show.
