Do you really need some bibliography listed here? How about you take good math foundations, then learn about scientific method, then learn about quantum theory, then see how physical chemistry and atom theory follows from quantum theory, then go to organic chemistry, chemical bond theory, then learn about biology, cell theory, genetic and molecular biology, evolution, learn about diversity of life, astrobiology. Learn about how geology and how geology follows from quantum theory. Lean about tectonic plate theory, geologic time and evolution from geologic point of view. Then lean about theory of gravity, theory of relativity, cosmology, solar system formation, origin of universe (big bang theory), Casimir effect, quantum tunneling, vacuum energy and how a flat universe can come from nothing.
Now contrast that with the world view and understanding of the bronze age herdsmen and the tribe god they invented and the religion that flows from it. Look at the character of the god they have, how he behaves exactly as you would expect the people of that age to behave. Look at the competing religions all claiming to posses the true words of the creator of the universe, yet they are totally incompatible and different to one another. Look at all the claims about the real world and see if they are compatible with what we now know as scientific facts. Evolution of religions and the fact we have multiple religions like this is exactly what you would expect to see if religion were man made.
Yes none of the above claims are backed by any evidence at all. Which brings me to an interesting point. Presumably an omniscient, omnipotent creator of the universe would know people would invent scientific method and evidence based reasoning. Would it not be incredibly stupid of god to demand belief in him without any evidence and leaving something important like what to believe and if you will be saved largely correlated with where you were born. If you are born in Saudi Arabia you will be defending Islam, rather than Christianity. Needless to say in Islam, Jesus is not only not the son of god, but he never died on the cross, and never resurrected. Believing otherwise will get you damned to hell for eternity. Yet, how many Christians spend sleepless nights worrying if Islam could be right? And why is that?
There are two kinds of beliefs. One is based on evidence, rational thinking, logic and the healthy mind has no option but to accept them (doing otherwise leads to cognitive dissonance which is rather unpleasant). And then there is belief in something based on no evidence. You could say, it is based on ignorance. This kind of belief is called faith. Religion is really all about faith, otherwise if religion were based on facts it would be a branch of science. All we have in religion is dogma, a set of beliefs no matter how incredible (look at transubstantiation - a central dogma in Catholicism) that one must accept without question to be counted as member. The biggest fault with religion though is that it makes a virtue out of accepting dogma, i.e. belief without evidence. Religion is making a virtue out of ignorance.
Many people were killed for questioning and seeking evidence and challenging accepted dogmas by the religious. But now religion comes to use mild and meek with open hands offering consolation, but we should not forget how it behaved when it really thought it had god on its side.
