The world wouldn't exist without God, so your question is hypothetical.
If it were possible to artificially remove all beliefs from humanity, then you would leave billions of people without hope and miserable. Moreover, evil people would just go off and find some other excuse to throw wars, for example politics, race, greed, envy......etc.
So, my answers to your question are: 1. Without beliefs and faith, the world would become a wasteland faster than it is already. 2. Without large religious institutions, there would be less negative impact. That might even be a positive because it would encourage more people to practise their faith rather than leave it to others.

There might have been fewer wars, but who's to say. Sometimes religion is the only thing that gives people hope. Having something to believe in is a wonderful feeling. People would still be evil and corrupted, other's would still be benevolent .

They tried that one already. Martin Bormann (Hitler's atheist manipulator); Pol Pot; Stalin; Mao; etc., etc. It wasn't very nice.
So the answer is that, however bad the world is with religion, without it it would be a lot worse.

Probability of entire social order could be lacking in stability.Religion is an integral part of daily life,ethics and morals.

I'm tired of the religions of man! My God is not made of wood and stone! My God is not made of flesh and bone! My God is not made of human thoughts! My God is the one true God! Who can stand when He appears? Kings bow down and demons fear! And the thunder crashes, mountains fall.... Oh! My God is the one true God! Tear down the idols! Tear down the idols! Tear down the idols in the name of the Lord! He is Lord forevermore!

Better. Less to fight over, less misinformation, less to impede progress and advancement through exploitation of people's beliefs for corrupt and self-serving purposes

wherever there is a human soul, there will be a need to find out why we exist on this planet.
hence..religion
a world without religion is like a world without feelings...impossible
