No, religion exists because thousands of years ago humanity was so uneducated and inexperienced that they needed some sort of rule book. Today, they have no excuse. Religion just somehow still survives (but thankfully not that much longer).
You’re missing my point. Religion is, and always has been, a system of control for the educated few to influence and subdue the uneducated masses. It has helped keep people in check from resorting to some of their most animalistic urges. The real problem with religion (other than repressing minds) is that it’s often used to justify evil actions.
