Hi ippy,
I am sorry if I offended you by calling you a troll....but continued stalking of person with jibes is called trolling.
Be that as it may...religion is a very complex thing. Its not as simple as 'those beliefs have no evidence so just get rid of them'!
Religions have a strong cultural base, an emotional link and a personal identity. It provides people with a greater sense of belonging than even the idea of a nation or even family. It has several traditional and time honored ideas and practices that have made communities and individuals what they are. It has been the anchor and support that people have depended on for millennia through all their troubles. It has been the law provider and the enforcer. It has been the marriage Councillor and the family doctor. You can't brush off religion and its role so easily.
Besides all this, religion has also as its base....Spirituality...which is the purpose and meaning of life itself. Some religions emphasize the cultural aspects more. Some religions emphasize the rules, some the rituals and practices and some emphasize the spiritual aspects.
Anyway, I don't think all this will be appreciated or even understood. So let me not go on. Suffice to say that religions have their place and their role and cannot be dismissed merely because a small minority feel that it should be.
There are problems in India and its neighborhood just as there are problems in North Korea, Syria, America, Spain and elsewhere. It has more to do with poverty and lack of education than with religion.
More about spirituality and religion some other time.
Cheers. 
Sriram
I've been called all sorts of things, couldn't give a fig whatever name anyone wishes to call me, I only referred to troll because that kind of thing isn't really needed, you can rename me troll if that's your bag.
This religion will, unfortunately imo, always be with us it needs to be put in its place with the universal introduction of secularism, do religion in your own time and don't keep on telling the rest of us about it, the governments should be blind to religion any religion or belief, no special places for religion or any other kind of belief and no persecution of any religious believers or persecution of believers of any other kind of belief, a level playing field for all.
Unfortunately we all know about these religions in detail, the social and spiritual aspects and loads of the others etc etc, it can't be avoided, ho hum.
I referred to the two troublesome incidents in and around India because that's where you are, no other reason, incidentally Sri Lanka? Wasn't it a bit troublesome in a similar religion based area not that long ago?
My case is quite simple compared to yours I'm not asserting anything, especially without anything that would back up a declaration of that kind; on the other you're asserting all sorts of things/ideas without any evidential backing of any kind, things that there's no good reason to go looking for in the first place.
It's difficult if not impossible to have a discussion, say about the contents of an empty box, which imo parallels with your suggested, more discussion about religion and spirituality, some other time.
Kind regards ippy
