Is there anything new under the sun to say about religion?

I'm no good at coming up with them myself but I'll know one when I see it.
Please no more "how can the bible say xxx and yet Christians believe yyy". Boring.
Likewise no more reiterations of standard Christian apologetics. If you're a xtian and have just stumbled onto a real zinger, trust me, we've seen it before, it's garbage. Spare us.
Maybe something authentic about how/why xtians make the jump from "I feel God's presence" to "ahh, here you go. That must be the God spoken of right here in this bible".
Or, on the other side, what really does it matter if some folks want to go on believing in gods? Is anything of consequence actually at stake? Does anyone really think removing xtian bullshit would do anything other than create a vacuum into which other bullshit would rush?
How about a poll on whether people think the human race is on a trajectory of 'progress'? I don't see it but I wonder how many people think they do.
Perhaps I'm just fresh out of shits to give about religion for or against.
Anybody got something fresh? Little help here.
