When I read deep religious thinkers works, I find that those questions are only easily answered by those who didn't scratched the surface. The honest ones are full of doubts.

People use religion for the purpose of getting easy answers, but does it mean that the purpose of religion is to give easy answers to people ?

Religion can be seen as a cultural phenomenom, or a tool, and it doesn't look like the same thing at all depending which you choose.

I'm pretty sure that any tool you give to humans, they will turn it into a cultural phenomenom.
