Then you'd be a good Buddhist. Mostly.
Without religion, the world would be chaos. If we found out aliens were in fact real, it would make religion look really bad in most places. Religion wrong?? = Chaos.
Let's look at the bible. I don't believe in God myself (Or I'm just not completely sure about it yet) but I trust in some of it's ethics as a guide to moral ettiquette. It's just another thing to guilt us and help keep us in line.

True, but I think moral guidelines can be founded without the need for religion. It boils down to what is right and wrong at the end of the day, which can be determined without the use of a book.
It's not like because religion says rape is bad, if there was no religion we'd all rape each other. Good morals are good morals. You either have them or you dont.
If aliens do exist (the chances of us being the only life form(s) in the universe is very slim) I can see all the religous nuts going absolutely insane. Now that would be fucking funny.
As long as they came nowhere near me that is!

Then you have to remember religion has been around a long time, and the less intelligent of our species long ago, who weren't learning or teaching religion, probably did rape each other. If religion never came about, then we probably wouldn't still be around as long as we have, including alot of other circumstances of course, but I'm putting it as simply as possible.

One of Albert Einstien's worst fear was that humanity would develope technology along faster than its ethics, spirituality ,e.i.: its ability to handle the technology. That's were religion fits in: it helps hinder our spiritual, physic and intellectual delopement. God fears that we'll become smart enough to revolt against (and strong enough to pull it off), so religion was created to hold our developement at bay, and keep us behaving like good sheep. 
Oh yeah, I like women that are clean of body, and dirty of mind.

I won't be original - i guess people really need to believe in some external force, that really helps them.
If you have some kind of a god (ex. our God), and you want something to work out, you have problems, etc; you always have someone/something to pray to. You can always ask for things, beg for someone's life and so on...
...on the other hand, if someone will die, if something'll go wrong, then you always have someone/something who you can blame, who you can call a cruel son-of-a-bitch.
Personally, i believe in God, though i don't believe that he gives a shit about what's goin' on on Earth.
And about different kinds of religion, i must agree with </rant> here : i don't care about what do people believe in, all is fine by me - as far, as they won't try to throw it into my face.

I'd say no, religion isn't needed. Nobody needs religion to survive, although some think they do. I won't get into the entire discussion though, it's been said time and time again. I'll just say this: Spirituality isn't bad, per se, but religion is; religion divides people and creates feelings of shame, fear and inadequacy. It often breeds hate, as well.
