The Purpose of Religions

I've believe that any comprehensive religion will have answers to the really "big" questions of life. The answers to these questions contribute order and comfort to people's lives. The Beliefnet quiz had the following "big" question in their survey:
What is the number and nature of the deity (God, gods, higher power)?

Are there human incarnation(s) of God (or of gods/goddesses)?

What are the origins of the physical universe and life on earth?

What happens to humans after death?

Why is there terrible wrongdoing in the world?

Why is there so much suffering in the world?
These would make for an interesting meme...
