Human beings, at least some of them, will always need some sort of religion, because they have to cope with death, insecurity, fear, and the sheer hugeness of the universe. But atheism and reason will gain weight.

As long as mankind fears death, he will grasp around for any fairytale to avoid having to confront his own mortality. Religion has even fooled man that he can cheat death and live forever! How delusional and in denial do you have to be to buy into that fantasy?

Inspect every piece of pseudoscience [[and Religion]] and you will find a security blanket, a thumb to suck, a skirt to hold. What have we to offer in exchange? Uncertainty! Insecurity!
— Isaac Asimov

It is an incredible con job when you think of it, to believe something now in exchange for life after death. Even corporations with all their reward systems don't try to make it posthumous.
— Gloria Steinem

I think we could drag the concept of gods and the supernatural to the ground, show the WHOLE world that the concept is a scam, and prove that it poses potential risk for the human race-

and people would still latch on like maggots on a turd.

Though I actively believe in at least one superior being, in many ways I remain Agnostic.

Many workings of the universe are either not soon to be known, unknowable, beyond understanding, or univers altering by their discovery.

I think so. Some form or another. Organized religion I'm not so sure.

No, I don't.

I think that eventually we will evolve from our current state of being RELIGIOUS & spiritual, to being Religious & Spiritual, to being religious & SPIRITUAL, and ultimately to being SPIRITUAL.

This will not happen in our Lifetime.
