No, religion is created to counterbalance parts of the mind in disequalibrium. The reason every culture has religion is because they need something to explain the unexplainable.
If you don't know how something works, you can just attribute the answer to religion or magic.
That is why religion is declining in most parts of the industrialized world, they simply don't need to have faith in god anymore to provide all the answers to them, they can rely on science.
