You have ten seconds to explain why religion is good for the world.
Protip: you can't.

It's a moral framework for goat fuckers and inbred retards. It's a shitty one for anyone who doesn't need it, but it's there for those who do.

Looks over at Christians, Buddhists, hindus ect... Nothing bad here. I wonder what Islam is up to in the middle east?

It provides a harmonizing force in society, that eases people's existential dread which is inevitable in life. Without the belief in a transcendent world beyond our material plane, most people would kill themselves or indulge in hedonistic pursuits at the expense of other's well-being, both of which are antithetical to a healthy, sustainable civilization.

Christians you are literally forgetting the 400s - 1800s, one of the worst religions.
It's the only thing for the next world.

The hilarity is that modern so-called non-theists like you think that you're not religious, but when you break it down to the essentials, you really are.
What is the difference if a man is in a church worshipping, in a synagogue counting shekels, in front of a funeral pyre chanting pagan hymns, or the modern so-called non-theist male sorting his amazon wishlist, eagerly researching the next vidya game coming out and the next smartphone, eagerly trying to fuck the next broad?
TL;DR, you always have values. Religion was never anything more than moralities created because they were believed to be beneficial for the layman to adhere to, to give his life purpose and direction.
Then you have to ask yourself, was that average man better off when he had his pagan gods and the values of a Hercules, or an Athena in the Iliad, or was he better off when he was eating the alien non-European Jewish poison called Christianity, or is he better off now, getting his "religion", his "values" from the church of the 20th century - television - and the church of the 21st century, the internet and the connected world of hypermedia.
> "2. Downfall. Today, those are outstanding spirits indeed in whom one can expect to find any independence of judgment. The great masses, who have never been, in the history of mankind, more subject to hypnotic suggestion than they are right now, have become the puppets of the "public opinion" that is engineered by the newspapers in the service, it need hardly be emphasized, of the reigning powers of finance. What is printed in the morning editions of the big city newspapers is the opinion of nine out of ten readers by nightfall. The United States of America, whose more rapid "progress" enables us to predict the future on a daily basis, has pulled far ahead of the pack when it comes to standardizing thought, work, entertainment, etc." - Ludwig Klages
