Actually what we need is a theocratic religion which means we have one form of worship that God approves, and is directed by God himself. Right now, there are many on the "broad and spacious road" that Jesus spoke about, but which sadly, leads to destruction. They are letting man-made ideas, philosophies, and traditions guide them, that is why so many are involved with a "theistic" religion.

Because there's some sort of innate need to belong in the universe, and people seem to think that a theistic god helps them fit more.
