Because people aren't perfect, and in the past it was an easy way to explain things we didn't understand in a way that made us feel good. It's a comforting fantasy that has been manipulated and altered over the years to be resistant to criticism by people who gained power and money by taking advantage of the faith of others. It's a conflux of a lot of different reasons, really.
