Oh bah!!! I mean no offense when I declare God and religion to be an adult version of the tooth fairy. Human nature is slowly maturing - think back to the middle ages when the masses were actually controlled by religion, it was the modern day police and the human race hadn't hit puberty. Now as we, the human race, reach our 20s and 30s, metaphorically, we look to science and eventually some time down the road we'll realize as a whole that it's pointless to even look for meaning. Just being is enough and eventually will be for us and then we'll be a mature race like the goddamn whales.

I just made that up but it seems to make sense.
