Paintings don't instruct one on how to live their lives, either.
Besides, I didn't comment on the purpose of religion, only that it has never explained anything.
But I will now offer that the purpose of religion is to control adherents. And mollify those suffering injustice. Rewards and justice are almost always only available in the afterlife. On the occasions that they do get delivered, why, it's by the grace of a deity working in mysterious ways.
