Religion's True Purpose

I have recently abandoned all ideas or concepts that are proposed by religions or other philosophies. However, this does not mean that the purpose of religion is false to start with. There is still some substance, some teaching that does not involve religious terms, but is present within every religion. And these teachings ring true. I have collected my five favorite quotes relating to five different religions, and when brought together, they are not at all contradictory. In fact, they seem to all come from the same source.
