That's a very well thought-out concept, DJ, but I don't agree. Religion is just primitive man trying to explain things in nature. Atheists are far more abundant now than in the past. An atheist in medieval europe would've been lynched. I still have enough faith that one day, people who kneel and pray will realize that they're getting no response, and will gradually stop it. Humanity started without religion; it developed it as a tool to ease the transition from mindless ape into evolved human. Now that we're so far along, the tool seems as outmoded as a shoe wedge...it's still widely used, and technically serves a purpose, but who REALLY needs a show wedge.
Did that last thing make any sense...?
