Here's one way to look at it: A group of Jews are hiding from Nazi troops just yards away. One of the Jews is a mother holding her newborn child. The child begins to cry loudly. What should the group do? The true scientist will say smother the child as the needs of many outway the needs of one. The average non-religious person would be conflicted. The true theologist would say nobody has the right to smother the child. Once you realize doing what's logical isn't always the same as doing what is right then you'll understand why religion is still around.
