I don't think religion will ever completely go away. I do think however there will be a shift away from religion and political party and nationality becoming less of a priority and a growing understanding of our common condition. In that sense I think there will be a death to the oportunity for any one group to have a monopoly.
I think the age of the internet exposes more of what we have in common as a species and I can see that as minimizing our evolutionary tribalism.
