Who said if god didn't exist man would invent him. True that the dogma is beat into young heads from birth but I think people would invent a new religion if the old ones were done away with.
It makes life so much easier. You do something bad and it's the devil's fault. You do something good it's the result of you being good and saying your prayers.
It takes guts to admit you don't know something even if it's obviously the truth. We have no idea what happens when we die but over the years we've developed a complex afterlife with golden mansions where we all know how to play the harp and understand all the stuff we wondered about all our lives.
