How would a world without religion even come about? A we gained more time to reflect we begin to wonder about the origins of the Earth and the mysteries of death.

It's easy. You just need people that have the balls to answer "I don't know" when asked questions about those things instead of making shit up.

We don't just say "I don't know" in regards to religion though, we say it for essentially every topic.
