teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Heh, heh. The "Trump '20" sticker is plastered across the tail-gate gap, ready to be torn in half at the first opening. Even the cartoon characters are idiots...

When you let the supernatural be an "explanation" for the natural phenomenons
But also, because people in the past had such poor understanding of nature they had much more "evidence" for the existence of God, and could say they had a "real" relationship with her.
This is why the religion of today is much different than that of yesteryear, and why it's so much less effective.
