I don’t know why you’re being downvoted. It’s an interesting viewpoiny. However, I believe religion was invented to fill the void. To explain what we couldn’t understand. Scientific advances has mostly filled that void, so there is no practical beed for religion. The only religion that is still useful is when people have to deal with difficult times, like the death of a partner or a child. People seem to genuinly find comfort in religion than. Every other aspect of religion is obsolete due to the changes in modern society and science.
I don’t think spirituality and religion are the same thing. Religion is a pre-defined set of rules that are forced upon you (or maybe you choose it freely, but not often). Spirituality is a highly personal feeling and indeed what you discribe, how you feel about your place in the universe. Religion defines your spiritual thinking for you. Non-religious people define, discover or learn their own spirituaĺ identity. This an be based on fiction, emotion, social identity, science, whatever. In all cases it is completely decoupled from religion though.
