IMHO, religion has been around to explain the unexplainable. When humans didn't know what caused thunder, there was Thor. When they didn't know why the sun travelled across the sky, there was Apollo. The two questions we don't know, these days, are

What are we before we're born and after we die?
and
What created matter/energy in the first place?

Religions say that God/gods created the universe, and try to explain the pre- and after-life. I'm skeptical about that
