The OP is about 'why we need religion in our lives'. However a person can be deluded by two reasons
  • Own mistaken interpretations of the message of a religion
  • When a particular vintage of a religion or belief which may preach a very harmful message

Regardless of the reasons, the results can be tragic. Here is an example from the recent tragedy at USA.

A deluded person for "Prayaschittam" for want for a better word, goes and kills a group of people.

==================

The gunman who killed five American troops in a Chattanooga shooting spree last week did online research for militant Islamist "guidance" on committing violence that he may have believed would wipe away in the afterlife his sins on earth including drug and alcohol abuse, an arrest and a lost job, officials said on Monday.
The Internet searches were discovered on electronic devices such as his smartphone analyzed over the weekend by the FBI Lab in Quantico, Virginia, several counter-terrorism officials confirmed to ABC News.
