science or religion what's your opinion

The main issue with religion are the concepts of morality, sin and creationism. I'll tackle the subject of morality: The problems that a moral code causes basically stems from the nearly infinite number of exceptions that can be applied. For instance, Catholicism usually excommunicates members who divorce, the Catholic Church believes that marriage is a lifetime commitment. The only issue is their stance on domestic violence. Under most of the literature of the Bible women are subordinate to men they are married to, so except in cases where a woman is badly beaten by her husband the official stance of the Pope and cardinals is that a divorce or annulment cannot be granted. Then, original sin is used to bring the feeling of guilt upon members of the church, and to therefore tie said person to a lifetime of sin and begging for forgiveness from a god whose power is supposedly limitless. Finally, creationism, my biggest issue. The whole idea of Adam and Eve's creation, with woman being born from man, and man itself being created in the image of the said god, is preposterous. Why do people seriously feel the need to give such a story to explain where they came from? As a kid I didn't even think of this stuff, there was no need. The need to know one's source is a man made idea,it isn't innate at all. As an atheist, I do not feel the need to answer such questions, I will worry about it when I'm dead.
