Stupidity is not a gift, it is a product of evolution. Now again, that is not to say believers of all religions worldwide cannot be smart. But when it comes to our species ability to gap fill and protect bad claims, that always seems to override our ability to question more than we should let it stifle our curious side that allows us to progress.

Gap filling is a product of our evolutionary pattern seeking. An antelope on the African plain does not always have time to assess if the swaying grass is merely the wind or a lion stalking it.

Unfortunately we are not born with scientific knowledge so our first experience after birth is our parental experience and all we know at that point is to display emotion to get attention, which is how we get attention and food. God belief is merely an anthropomorphic ink blot placebo we put in place to act as our super parent, it also allows us to ignore our finite existence. It is merely a comic book desire to continue.

Dawkings describes this evolutionary flaw in his book "The God Delusion" as "the moth mistaking the light bulb for moonlight."

Humans make up gods for a false sense of comfort. The only real thing that placebo does is provide group safety, opportunity at resources and offspring.
