Confused Ape got to it first. They really did think they were having visions from the divine, as did (and do) many 'crazy' or drug-addled people.

Organized religion should not be confused with a belief in or perceived contact with the supernatural. Organized religion has always been devoted to control, and has always been based on the values of the head of said religion. Whether or not it was meant to make you a better person in reality only mattered if it coincided with said person's goals for power.
