Religion is an outdated form of self-therapy. The standard default for people falling on hard times is to look for a higher power for consolation, help, advice and even intervention. If you backtrack that to ancient man, it only makes sense for these people to start believing in Natural powers like animals, spirits and the sun. As these people evolved so did their beliefs. It became more complex and subsequently became part of their culture.
