Now tell me what is the point in believing in answer that is more than 100% wrong ? What is the point of telling some uneducated maggot that 5 + 5 is 9 ? How exactly is it going to benefit him in his life ?
The answer is in my first statement, it helps them feel at peace with mortality and gives them a way by which to live their life.
But it doesn't matter anyway!
Because how exactly does our being right about the nature of existence benefit you or I? What is the point of what you believe? How does it improve your life?
"And there would be no argument if everyone was religious instead, your point is totally invalid. There is religion so it's not an option anyway. A person doesn't start the argument by believing in god, they're minding there own business and believing what they want. But then others come up and attack this belief, thusly starting the argument. This argument was started by a non religious person. And I, the person arguing with you, am also non religious! But I'm also not so ignorant that I can't grasp basic truths and concepts. And the truth is it doesn't matter if god is real or not, because the basic word of god is to be good to people and last I checked that is what we want. If believing in some made up thing stops people from killing and robbing each other then good! It's no skin off my nose, or yours! You focus on religion as the problem and you will be blinded to the real evils of this world."
Why should we have to believe in god to accomplish anything?

The purpose of religion is to give people an answer to that which cannot be answered.
Don't get caught up in the "I hate/love religion" thing, some people just need an answer to function, right or wrong.

Because people like you think it matters in the first place, thus causing a divide.

It does matter. If there was no religion this argument wouldn't happening.
