Interesting. My thoughts are...Religion has primarily been used as a tool to control and keep people docile...easier to rule. I think if you take that away....over time, people will be more likely to rebel.

In general I think people will just find a new way to express themselves. For the people...religion appears to be an outlet. I think that can be replaced with something else if need be. Maybe more artists, thinkers etc. will emerge. But thats a good question, Fdd.
