I find it a childish and rather simplistic idea that gives easy answers to hard questions and thereby reveals itself as a product of the infancy of our species when the oldest person in the village was twenty with no clue as to how anything worked.
Religion is indistinguishable from myth as far as I can see so I regard it it the same way.
Interesting but not to be taken seriously.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
