religion was created by the first humans out of fear of the unknown.
those that can make predictions like the behavior of seasons are revered becasue they provide some certainty of the future, they are the first priests.

"OOh, the wind is moving from here to there."
"Yeah, it's a superior being breathing."
"You're right, you're a guru."
Welcome to religion.

When was religion ''created''? Isn't it an ongoing process?

We might say looking at the sky and worshipping the sun, or ancestral worship were the ''beginnings'' of religion..

is it that or a natural inbuilt thing every man has a conciousnes of the spiritual world.

some thinkers would try to convince us we are only matter.. atoms.

Every people world wide has some spiritual belief... some tradition.

from the 1800's on we became atoms

before that we were a combination of flesh and spirit... nothing has changed.

Part of us lives on forever.

thats why your religion you question exists. Because deep down we know....

We didn't became it, it was just discovered.

As there is no hard difference between religion and spirituality etymologically, humanity has been religious for quite some time.

If you equal spirituality with creationism, I guess it's a yes.
And yeah, humans are indeed animals. Ain't that awesome?

Be my guest Religion. Have a seat, however, I guess.
Religion is soap, do you clean it right or do you second hand?
Time out Religion and be at peace.
Maybe Religion is your vehicle to get there, remember who you are in that too.

Yes, I think so.
Religion: a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor (fervor) and faith
As long as there are groups gathering, there will be some form of religion.
