Should there be no religion in your life? You have a God given right to decide that. Some people decide yes and others decide no. Both are useful to our understanding. If we did not see those who chose no religion, see their manner of life and hear their arguments, we couldn't perfect our understanding of our religion. If religion was beautiful and powerful for our lives, we would all want it. Deciding on should there be no religion is a serious matter with very serious consequences for society.

Would the earth know to grow vegetation that was edible?
Would we survive long enough to know what was edible verses what was deadly?
Would we eat the other beings that would be evolving with us?
If we began on this planet as babies with no supervision or direction, how would we evolve?
Would we decide to share what we had or fight over it?
If survival of the fittest is the evolutionary process, would we learn to love each other or use each other and destroy each other?
If by chance we grew to adulthood and somehow had a baby, would
