At some point (who really knows when), man decided to invent god. Here are the top 5 reasons I can come up with that probably motivated him to do so.
#1. Regulation - Controlling the masses
#2. Reward - Immortality
#3. Reunion - Spending eternity with deceased friends, family, and loved ones
#4. Reason - Purpose
#5. Retribution - Enemies and the immoral must suffer
I listed them in the order that I think most compelled man to invent god and religion, but I could easily see them in a different order.
