Why is religion so ubiquitous?

RE: Why is religion so ubiquitous?
I don't go in for this whole "God shaped hole" business. We're the only animal that knows it's going to die, so we look for meaning in our lives, big deal. Give a purpose to your own life, don't wait for religion or whatever to fill it.

"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."
Einstein

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life.
