So, atheists, what do you miss about Religion?

It's a cheeky question, based on the general themes of Dr Jordan Peterson.  Hegel believed that past times had elements that were worth recovering.

What are we missing?

I will start:
-humility
-forgiveness
-sharing
-connection
-non-materialism
-pluralism

These things were preached and are declining IMO.  I believe it's at least correlated to the decline of religion.

This is, as with capitalism, a bad-with-the-good texture.  We are fed and clothed by capitalism and can live with it even if we hate the system, as a pragmatic response to its utility.

What are the best things about religion and how can we restore them?
