Has religion outlived its usefulness?

It was a good system of controlling people and scare tactics for centuries but science is just proving religion wrong more so everyday. Ever hear of evolution? Astronomy? Physics? I'm not saying that there wasn't a creator, that I'll let fly, but the fairy tales that go along with god are pathetic. People still believe that Jesus was resurrected? That a burning bush told Moses not to kill his son? That Muslims believe eating pigs is going to send you to hell? I'm not even going to get into anything else because it's so unbelievable. What gives? Is it just a tradition nowadays?
