I came to believe that the bible (as well as all religion) was created as a primitive source of law and structure. This belief in the higher power, that is always watching, as well as inescapable consequences for your actions (hell), creates a will not to do ‘bad things’. Where as previously, you were punished if you were caught, here you will be punished no matter what.
Hope this makes sense.
