Religions can help

"Am I?  The Bible represents a fundamental guidepost for millions of people on the planet, in much the same way the Koran, Torah, and Pali Canon offer guidance to people of other religions.  If you and I could dig up documentation that contradicted the holy stories of Islamic belief, Judaic belief, Buddhist belief, pagan belief, should we do that?  Should we have a flag and tell the Buddhists that we have proof the Buddha did not come from a lotus blossom?  Or that Jesus was not born of a literary virgin birth?  Those who truly understand their faiths understand the stories are metaphorical."
      Sophie looked skeptical.  "My friends who are devout Christians definitely believe that Christ literally walked on water, literally turned water into wine, and was born of a literal virgin birth."
     "My point exactly," Langdon said.  "Religious allegory has become a part of the fabric of reality.  And living in that reality helps millions of people cope and be better people."
     "But it appears their reality is false."

Basically, existing religions are all similar in the sense that they contain credos and beliefs that are not compatible with Spiritual truths, although they do share the fundamental truths. 

First was the Spirit world, which was created by Great Spirit or God.  All the religions on this planet originally sprang out in that world and was brought down to Earth through spiritual leaders or gurus just for the benefit of mankind.
