[bobbyps]

someone needed something to calm himself, to convince and encourage something bad in real-life. and give heavenly hope.

That i think is also one thing why religion is widely accepted even in he past. There are things that happen to a man's life that he would have the need of something to hang on to or something to look to for explanation. Religion gives the answer to a lot of this unclear things.

There are many unconscious reasons people believe in religious faiths. While many people find comfort and joy in their religious practices because of their moral teachings there are other reasons they're drawn to their faith as well. For many people faith was a part of their upbringing and they want to continue their families traditions. Faith plays an important role in our culture and reason has been part of the human race from time immemorial and it will continue to be part of us.

Information and religion has no inter-relation hence it can’t be judged with this comparison. But both information technology and religion were created by the human beings for our own good. The necessarily of Information technology is known by everyone.

However, why do religions exist? It is because, you need to resort to something when you are sad or when you have committed a sin. You need something to resort to where you can wash away your sins. That’s why we have created religion.

But sadly, few people are using religion for their own benefits. Also they are receiving support from many other people who believes in religion. I am sure, this religion will be bring the doomsday up on us in few years.

I agree that for the many people religion is just ritual, part of culture or tradition etc.
Still, it's not only answer why so many people follow religion and believe in God.
Many people can't find purpose in their life. They feel that is some highest truth and purpose out there.
Other people, like Einstein, through science understood that must be creator, God, who created all this miracles and whole universe.
Some people had spiritual revelations and talked with God.
There are no simple answer why so many people believe in God and religion.

The answer is simple.  A lot of people are gullible, uneducated or just plain stupid.

The rest is just 'going with the flow' for family, culture and tradition sake.

Most religious wackos do not really believe that they consume the actual body of Christ when they swallow their cracker every Sunday.
If they do, they are simply delusional.   

Religion is a business.

The details of what God is like can be found in combining the proof in the links with all the things you can see in nature, in yourself, in other people.

God makes things work. The proofs show this. He has nothing to do with originating destruction, but since people and the devil seem to like destruction at times, God even makes destruction work for them.

[Brystol-MyersSquibb]

Because some people have higher spiritual connections than others (some obviously none at at) those that do, seek guidance from it, through the good times & bad.

To be honest, it's very hard for me to object to something both to one and to another person. I believe in God, but not in his material existence. And at the same time I know that science will never confirm this.

Im religious person and my religion is christian . I still belive in my religion because I see in the bible god creates all even in this esrth everything you see. Many people are not believe in religion because they not know what happen if we die. And I believe heaven is true and also the hell. I accept god to my mind and my heart and he is my saviour .

[yueno]

It is because of God. You know they believe the people that this world is created by a God. Its either Allah or Jesus Christ.  They also believe that there is a heaven and the hell in which two option of bad and good people when they are die.  So therefore do good be good so that you will go to heaven.
