Actually, I think most people are simply intellectually lazy. Religion provides a convenient, socially-acceptable, set of answers that require little thought and which really have even less importance in the big scheme of things.

Most people just go along because although god is an irrelevancy, religion does exist and in some places it can really fuck you up to push back at its bullshit.
