That’s a cute story that provides a tidy explanation for religion, but is it supported by the anthropological evidence? Where are your sources? Are you sure you’re not just making up stories in an attempt to explain things that you do not understand?
Perhaps you could provide the search query terms which will lead me to an empirical study confirming your hypothesis? I’m not sure what to search to find your evidence for you.
Your hypothesis was that people use religion to explain the unknown, while this study concludes that religious people are more likely to judge the unknown as unknowable. Needless to say, one cannot explain the unknowable. Therefore, your hypothesis is countered by this evidence.
Once again, science proves that tidy little stories atheists make up to explain the world around us are just that - stories. Next time, I’d suggest avoiding speculation you can’t back up with empirical research.
No, people invented religions in an attempt to explain things that they did not understand.
Things that the scientific method has allowed us to understand.
That is not science.

It’s a well documented sociological phenomenon. Read a (different) book.

Yeah let me get right on that so you can just move the goalposts.
Here look at me doing it anyway because it took like 30 seconds
