No I do see exactly where you're coming from man....no matter what happen (or doesnt happen) no matter what Q and Trunk promise - and then dont deliver, people keep putting their faith in them....it's insane.
Welcome to the basis of religious thinking.
Why would evolution choose such ridiculous patterns? It's not a mistake. People with irrational conviction fight harder. People who imagine God is on their side win wars. Unfortunately they seem to be missing the key aspect that causes this kind of thinking to be beneficial: active violence.
yes, and they are stupid too, hence the misery in the world
No, people with innate savages won wars. Think viking invaders, steppes people, etc. Harsh living conditions bred harsh men. This is why jews fear the white man, not because of our potential for intellect but because of our potential for violence. To wake the people is to wake the beast inside them. To lead them, is to point the beast at your enemies.
Morale is essential, and deities boost morale.
