Sure, that's why religion exists for a lot of people: to calm their anxiety. Think about it: religion along with stuff like believing in flat Earth, believing in aliens, believing in magic is very soothing because it is a banal explanation of how world works and when "we" have such banal thoughts filling our heads it calms us down because it brings us back to our early childhoods when we had banal brains and banal explanations about the world which then automatically connects us with another feeling from childhood: calmness - we didn't have to worry about problems, paying bills, etc.
