I don't wish for religion to be forced to end. I didn't phrase that well, and I should change it. It's impossible to end it anyway, all you could do is clamp down on organised religion.
Edit: I updated my wording.
(A)
I have not any opinion/belief.
Simply, it has been observed, that optimal actions are computable absent opinion/belief's necessitation:

(B)
The universe's best description, Quantum Mechanics, consists of probabilities.
Therein, there persists:
1) A layer of probabilities, upon which optimal actions are computable.
2) A layer of beliefs, upon which actions are computable, quintessentially on the horizon of said probabilities.
The layer of beliefs is entirely irrelevant/redundant; for one may compute solely on probabilities.

A world with no opinions or beliefs sounds sad.

A world absent opinions/beliefs, is regardless, such of probabilities (quantum mechanics)... streams of expressions of strings of bits of can and can'ts.
Sample (format copied via google outcome):
atom
ˈatəm/
noun
- the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist.

I prefer my 3 step system. 2 steps to becoming God and then 1 step to losing all your beliefs.
Two steps to becoming God:
Step 1: Express grotesque amounts of hubris.
Step 2: Murder the fuck out of anyone who disagrees with you about anything ever.
One step to losing all your beliefs:
Set fire to your own head until it burns off. No brain=no beliefs or certainty about anything happening or not happening.
DISCLAIMER: WARNING! THE ABOVE 3 STEP SYSTEM IS A JOKE AND TERRIBLE ADVICE. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME, AT A PICNIC, IN TRANSYLVANIA, DURING A LAWS OF PHYSICS-VIOLATING INTENSE GANGBANG SESSION BETWEEN 10 IDENTICAL CLONES OF A BLOKE NAMED "ALF" AND A SAUSAGE-AND-MAYO-HUNGRY BABE CALLED "NATASHA FANNY-TASTICA" ON A NUDIST BEACH IN THE BAHAMAS OR INDEED ANYWHERE ELSE.

That disclaimer just kept getting longer and longer and more and more absurd. Had to make myself stop before it became a novel, lol.

Your expressions are quite the disappointment.
You possess roughly 100 billion neurons, in tandem with trillions of synapses.
However such is but apparently, of narrow application...

You have no opinions? I don't think you understand what an opinion is. You've disagreed with opinions I have expressed about how things should be, so that makes yours a competing opinion. You can only objectively assess what is, not what ought to happen.
For example, it's my opinion that hitting little kids with sticks is a bad thing, and that opinion will motivate me to stop someone who is doing it.
Without opinions, we are simply calculators.

(A)
Optimal actions are computable on probabilities.
(B)
One may disregard another's opinion, by noting relevant FACTS (absent opinion), that may upend said opinion.
('C')
Beings are calculation machines, absent opinion, or containing such.

Optimal with regards to what? Without a goal, you can't calculate anything.
What is your goal, and what makes it the best goal, without appealing to any subjective value judgement?
