While yes I think somewhat similarly, I totally understand why people want, need, or have religion.
I was raised without religion, I do not feel it is needed nor do I feel there is something missing in my life. My morals and values come from a conscious determination of what I feel is just, right, and fair.
Religion has driven people to do some really terrible things, even driven a people to war many, many times. But it has also done an incredible amount of good within communities, and given people hope where they might not otherwise have it.
