RE: If everyone was atheist

I'd say yes on the basis that:

1) There is nothing useful religion offers society that can't be accomplished without it.

2) Religion offers extra reasons to allow bad things.

Basically, it offers the chance for people to screw things up without any meaningful, tangible benefits. Sure, you can tell people that they're actually immortal and they'll get to see their loved ones when they die, but I don't see that as actually helping society. Grief counseling doesn't have to be accomplished through nonfalsifiable, improbable promises.
