Religions are tried,immemorial and probably the most disputed ideologies in the world. With the exclusion of paganist/heathens, the rest of the world has been run basically by the same sort of ideologist for several centuries.The world politics has been interlarded with the influence of religion, and the cardinals of religious centers has been , dullard though they may be, enjoying a large followings everywhere. For some straight reasons, I find it reasonable to assume that while gods are non-exists,their nondescript ideological foundation,I mean religion, would continue to surrogate their more obstrusive image in the world.The reason behind this is probably the more visual one thing may appear, the more easily people try to identify themselves with them, and probably try to equate themselves with gods. However,human hubris surrendered to this simple reasoning also, and all sorts of arts were created in which god would enjoy local flavor.Perhaps there also lies the natural propensity.Why most of the people consider god to be like us terrestrial mortal? Mao tried to obliterate religion from China. Old people from China still say they are atheist.Buddhist influence is nowhere as much as it used to be before liberation(This word denotes 1949AD in China.)Now,with more open environment, the religion has been resurgent. I am always surprised thinking how religion can last any other competing theory.Why man just can't believe on himself? Why man should be so much subscribing to some lessons some people preached some thousands years ago? Probably,religions are here to stay.There seem to be some tenacious element ,that holds together all the generations of people, and make them belive on them.
