How is religion irrational? It has been a driving force behind philosophy and reason for centuries, from Muslim thinkers like Averroes to countless Christian philosophers who exploredo the depths of rational and reason.
Reason itself was in many ways pioneered by the religious, whether it is Christian or Pagan (Socrates believed that certainly there was a God, based on an intelligent design theory).
Whatever you personally think about religion is irrelevent.
Stop being an arrogant twit.
