You can replace Religion with rule-worship, meritism, legalism etc pertaining to God.

If he wasn't so busy trying to sound controversial and edgy he might pay more attention to the verbal diarrhoea pouring form his self-righteous mouth.

Not if you give a damn about the sanctity of the English language.

He may be quite delightful once he steps off the podium, but he hasn't yet mastered the art of combining persuasive and engaging discourse with quiet humility. I found all the shouting and posturing on his God-given soapbox rather off-putting.

Completely subjective judgement of course.

he is different to many speakers, many christian speakers in fact.

But I believe he uses his passion for good.

Not everyone can or should be a gentleman all the time about all issues

"religion only leads to pride (which is a sin) or depression (which is a sin), what god want is humble joy and you can't get that from religion."

Islam doesn't lead to Pride because none of the messengers have ever thought of getting a high position just to take advantage of their prophet hood.Never.

pride or despair.

Im so good, or im not good enough

They were humble and they were very grateful because God has chosen them,but that doesn't mean that they were arrogant.As you can see,God has prepared them for all the missions.So its not despair,nor is it Pride.

well then those people arent being religious.  
They arent of the mindset, if I obey then God will love

Well,that doesn't change the fact that they were Messengers.I suppose you know that Muhammad was illiterate.each one of them had a good reputation and people loved them.But,that has changed a bit when they had begun preaching the message.And in Islam,Muslims do believe that in the day of judgment,people of Noah will deny that he has ever preached any message when God asks them about why haven't they believed,Noah will be asked by Allah to prove that he has so he will tell God,People of Muhammad believed in me,those will testify for me.My source is Koran
