What is the function of religion in society? It is to teach virtue, to give understanding of man's purpose in the universe and to give purpose to our lives.

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." Albert Einstein

This story is deceptive. Although he was a religious Jew for a short time in his childhood, for most of life Einstein rejected the belief of a Personal God. When challenged he compared his belief with that  of Spinoza a philosopher who had been excommunicated from the Jewish Community of Amsterdam. Also the argument given here contradicts scripture - see Isaiah 45:7. In it both darkness and evil are described as produced by God.

@nodesnetwork Humans don't need religion to give their lives purposes.
