Can anyone explain why humans would be hard-wired to believe in a god? Why is that necessary? It doesn't seem like such a trait would help us survive in any way - so how would it make it through natural selection? But I suppose that isn't a valid point if it is hard-wired in our minds and isn't in our genes. Still, if we are just creatures whose main purpose in life is to survive, why would we be equipped with such a feature?
