Quoted By:
Humans are social animals. All social animals require dominance hierarchies to function, whereby a small fraction of them function as leaders for the vast majority to follow.
>humans are built to obey
Several leaders capitalized on this, using the ultimate form of leadership (all-powerful in all domains), which means humans must subjugate themselves to the ultimate form of submission.
>religion forces humans to obey
The propagation of religion is purely from humans being social and wanting to fit in. Once you have a critical mass where most people are religious, most people will want to fall in line with the common-place ideology.
>most people believe in god
Yet, most people also live their life how they want in privacy.
