The Bible clearly explains how God didnt want the Earth to be a perfect, paridse land with no suffering.

I'm Not Saying You Guys Are Wrong But Christianity Is Such An Easy Religion To Bash, If You Really Want To Debate Religion Vs. Science You Have To Go Back, Pr-organized Religion And Pre-symbolism And Look Into The Early Oral History Of Doctrines And Lessons Taught By People. Religion In It's Simplest Form Is Faith. Why Did Early Man Have Faith And Why Did Some Men (Buddha, Mohammed, Jesus, Confucius, Moses, etc.) Believe They Were "Chosen" To Bring About New Religions And Why Did People Choose To Follow Them And Essentially Start Organized Religion? People Thought Fire Was Magic (Black Magic At One Point Too) And Anyone Who Could "Conjure" It Was Worshiped Like A God (Also Look At Early Paganism) But Soon People Disproved That Fire Was Magic And If Simply A Reaction When Certain Elements Are Presented In Such A Fashion (First A Theory Then Easily Proven). Given That, Why Didn't People Just Dispel Early Religious Leaders And Say Everything Could Eventually Be Explained By Science They Just Haven't Reached That Level Of Intelligence Yet? Were They Gravitating Towards Faith Because They Wanted Something To Believe In, Something Better, Something To Make This All Seem Worth It? Was It Forced Onto People To Encourage Them To Work, Claiming If They Didn't They Would Rot In Hell Forever?

Religion was created to bring order to society. It gave communities a set of morales/rules to live by & with religion & it's predicted consequences made it easy to control the general population. It also generated an income.
You know why christians/catholics have to eat fish on fridays? Because the sales on fish in Italy depleted, so the Pope initiated this rule. #TrueStory
To This Day Religion Still Controls Society.
I Don't Believe God, But It's Better To Just Accept It. If Believing In God Makes Someone a Better Person & Brings Order To Society Then WHy Not Implement Religion Into a Community.

I'm actually in with @ Tha Dope Man on that. I can believe that most religions were created as an early ages book of morality.

@ EtH You can't really argue that it wasn't designed to establish order and morales to live by within the community.
Obviously it's not the only purpose. I'm sure most actually believed in what they we're living by.

you obviously saw the Bill Nye vs Ken Ham debate
here's what you need to know about creation. & my viewpoint differs from both of their views but falls more in line with Bill Nye.
we've been alive for longer than you know. how long, i dont know. but longer than the age you have. we start off as micro organisms and we've evolved into humans. so its safe to say we've been around thousands of years to say the least. Bill Nye said we were created from star matter. Its true. We're a part of the universe. We're just one organism of many. Star matter. Matter that moves and gets transferred but never destroyed
& religion is a control mechanism. i've said it about 100 times on here but apparently people like to bring it up
