That's not a great question for the answer you are seeking.
is there any real 100% concreat proof that any religion is correct, over any other one... NO
throw every book you've got into a pile and burn them all, The bible, the coran, the Templar scrolls, all of them have a few common threads:
1 they were written by man, NOT GOD
2 they inspire us to be great
3 they have cause more war then any other reason in this world
4 they all try to explain where we come from
5 you can't prove any of it
Religion isn't fake, but it isn't real, that's why it's called Faith.
See I'm a Catholic, and often considered by my family as a doubting Thomas, I believe what I see, blessed be those who have not seen and still believe.
Confused, gotta give me a different question for a more precise answer. but if you want a one word answer from me:
NO.

Any religion based on Supernatural Deities and the words of those living in the dark ages should be questioned.

In this digitlal age, religious faith has taken a back seat and material enjoyment and disregarding religion has become the fashion.
It is true by the name of religion, many many shalow philosophical schools has been operating today , and instead enlightening people taking them away from God.
It is very hard to find out a true preacher who can really enlighten us with proper knowledge of the soul which we all are deprived of.
So what should we do ? We are forced to make comments like religion is fake. God does not exists or even if He exists He forgot this world and left us suffer here.
Religion is establised by GOD himself and from time to time He decends here to teach us how to live in this world and how to get away from this miserable place. birth, death, old age and disease are four major problems that the soul experience when comes to this material planet and gets a material body to enjoy through various kinds of sense organs.
The more we try to satusfy ourself the more we invite miseries. Money, name, fame etc nothing can make our soul really happy. Just imagine some of the big celebrities of today like Britney spears etc. for whom money, name & fame is not a problem but still they all are not happy. The same name, fame money put them in such a miserable condition.
The point I am making that at any stage no one in this world can say that they are happy. It is not possible as that's how this material world is designed that we will suffer not that GOD wants us to suffer but it due to our false association with the matter and the subsequent KARMA we build up. As bible says that GOD created human from His own image, so we all are His children. If He has created us then, there must be some reasons. The reason is not just eating, sleeping, mating and defending as those are the also present in 4 legged animals.
Religion is not for cats and dogs it is for human being.
You must first have your philosophy correct as without an authentic strong philisophy we can't seek GOD.
Being a spirit soul and not a temporary human body we must seek how we can satisfy our soul and not our body.
Soul food is not what you eat but what philosophy you follow to revive your conciousness.
Religion is a medium to re-awake your soul ro find out the your real identity.
Who are you ? Are you this body ? If not then begin your search to find the answer and you will be amazed to find many answers. But I would suggest you to read Bhagavad Gita.
http://www.asitis.com
The Gita is the most authentic scripture that exists in the face of this earth which is dated back to 5000 years when it was first time composed and written as before that it was all used to carried in the memory.
This book will give you the the understanding about who is GOD, where does he live, what is your position and relationship with GOD and what does he want from you and how you can surrender to GOD and how He reciprocates and interact with you in every second in your life.
I hope that helps.

Religion is real, the beliefs behind the religion is what people question.

Religion itself is not......but there are some that are, and there are certainly more than a few people IN the religions that are incredibly fake.

Every religion is real. The question is, are the things in which they believe real? To which I have to ask, does that really matter? Do the benefits of religion outweigh the validity of their God(s)?
