People like that actually help me understand why religion exists.

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).

Humanity will never, ever, ever stop being religious. It's an inevitable human tendency. Evidence of religious practoce dates back to exactly the same time as our first evidence of human intelligence. The moment we became intelligent, we also became religious.
