From my perspective, God was created by self-interested men so men could put fear into their citizens to control their citizens in their societies. I find that God is a superstitious entity. But, I am still skeptical about whether God really does exist or not because I have not been convinced that God exists yet.
Earlier than that we no doubt had old men sitting around a camel dung campfire "explaining" the world to the younger people. I would imagine that some of them were afraid they would no longer be fed if they didn't keep the "good stories" coming.
Today religion is a business with an non-substantial product that costs nothing to make and costs the consumer all out of reason.
