1. We'd be better off without Religion

C.S. Lewis said that if you are an atheist, you have to believe that every religion is entirely wrong; if you are a Christian, you only have to believe that the other religions are wrong, but not entirely. They may very well have a hint at the truth and still be wrong.

Any man who can look at the immense complexity and underlying order of the universe and deny the existence of God is an arrogant fool, no matter how intelligent he may be. Every day I read science stories that proclaim excitedly "we figured out how this works!" They remind me of a little boy turning on the light switch in an immense factory and being excited that he discovered how to turn on the light. He's just scratching the surface. Humans are not as great as we make ourselves out to be. As much as we laud our own intellects, just spend 10 minutes reading the news headlines, filled with bloodshed and violence, and you will learn what happens when man denies his creator and acts like what you claim he is; nothing more than an animal.
