The idea that humans don't have any use for religious fairy tales in the modern world is apparantly more ridiculous since, well, there exists an immense number of people who are devout to them. You assume that the purpose of religion is to explain things like germs and atoms in absence of knowledge of things like germs and atoms. That's not such a sound assumption.
By the way, when the Bible was written the world was also modern. The world is always modern in whatever time as long as it's the present
