We are brought to believe that our existence came into effect about 7-8000 years ago and yet the evidence abounds that not only did it come into effect much earlier than that, but that we were not the first ''civilization'' to rule this earth.
If we look at the nature around us
it is much easier to herd sheep than cats
and that's why religion was introduced - to herd large numbers of sheep with minimum personnel
This still goes on today as religion has metamorphosed into less godly dogmas such as racism and the long list of PC phobias
Religion doesn't always need a godly figure
sheep will obey a good shepherd as well as the dogs the shepherd send to coral them
Luckily there are always some sheep that don't like to follow the trend
but some sheep are more equal than other
