Well for Catholics if our religion did not exist there would be no more Eucharist, no more sharing with Jesus Christ himself and then no more life itself.
1076 The Church was made manifest to the world on the day of Pentecost by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The gift of the Spirit ushers in a new era in the "dispensation of the mystery" the age of the Church, during which Christ manifests, makes present, and communicates his work of salvation through the liturgy of his Church, "until he comes." In this age of the Church Christ now lives and acts in and with his Church, in a new way appropriate to this new age. He acts through the sacraments in what the common Tradition of the East and the West calls "the sacramental economy"; this is the communication (or "dispensation") of the fruits of Christ's Paschal mystery in the celebration of the Church's "sacramental" liturgy.
1324 The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life." "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch

i think we need religion more now than ever before. there are so many more ways for bad stuff to get into our lives that there were before. TV, internet, movies, we can get almost anything right to us in an instant. wouldn't it be nice to know how to avoid the evil stuff and to know the world is being watched over?
humans arn't any more or less ignorant that we were before. if we had learned, maybe there wouldn't be any murderers, racists, or corrupt politicians?

You have no idea how much your view is influenced by debunked theories by the likes of Frazer and Freud. Technology changes, culture changes... but religion has always addressed universal elements of the human experience. And you should take a look at some of the accomplishments of ancient man. Go read "Hamlet's Mill."

ONLY ONE RELIGION CAN BE CORRECT.
That is the one obeying completely God's requirements.
All the rest are referred to in the Bible as 'Babylon the Great'
(Revelation 18:4-5) And I heard another voice out of heaven say: “Get out of her, my people, if YOU do not want to share with her in her sins, and if YOU do not want to receive part of her plagues. 5Â For her sins have massed together clear up to heaven, and God has called her acts of injustice to mind.
'She' is said to be 'sitting on many waters'. This means controlling many people.
so it cannot apply to singular small religious groups.
It has to be a large religious organisation. Controlling millions.
What are God's requirements?
1. worshipping God himself. Not Jesus, who is God's son. Jesus directed all worship to his Father.
2. Not bowing down to idols or statues, of any description.
(Exodus 20:4-5) “You must not make for yourself a carved image or a form like anything that is in the heavens above or that is on the earth underneath or that is in the waters under the earth. 5Â You must not bow down to them nor be induced to serve them, because I Jehovah your God am a God exacting exclusive devotion, bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons, upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation, in the case of those who hate me;
3. It is necessary to recognise Jesus as God's son. Any religion that considers Jesus as anything less is also unacceptable. Genesis 3;15.
Two scriptures have placed two of the world's largest religious organisations as part of 'Babylon the Great'.
And as such will be destroyed.

Hello,
What good would it do anyway? We'd still be striving for material perfection, lusting for personal power, achievment and stomping on anyone who got in our way of aquiring material happiness and bliss in our very finite lives which would flicker away forever in an average 75 years.
Regards,

If only it was that easy. Maybe if religions could be more accepting of one another.
What am I talking about?! That's just a pipe dream. Never gonna happen.

All religions must go. In a thousand years, people will marvel at the things we believed. And they will laugh. Let's end religion sooner than later. god doesn't exist, it is so obvious.

That is actually already occurring. . .yet in a subtle way. There is one Way . . . one Light. That Light is being seen more clearly layer by layer.

Even if opinions changed, God would still exist.
We have changed some rules. Women can show their hair in church, etc.
But God still exists. Hence; religions still exist. They always will, because humankind can never prove or disprove God.
