"Why is there something rather than nothing?" There just is.
"Why does the world have a rational order?" It just does.
"Why do causes produce regular effects?" They just do.
Yeah, those are reasonable answers...not.
The questions you pose are bad questions to begin with. They imply purpose. There is no purpose to there being something rather than nothing. There is no reason why one alternative is better or more meaningful than the other. One just happens to be true and there is no purpose to that being the case.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.
