This yearning could be translated as others as some form of fear or rather an illusion to escape the harsh realities that have faced humanity from our first ancestors to this day and age. Religion is not only as a result of an abstract feeling, but also has its origins accredited to as a political stabilization weapon, a way early tribal chiefs, elders or even kings used to maintain order and create unity in a society. The two forms of religion prevalent in the primitive society were animism and totemism. Anthropologists believe language came out about at the same time the human species gained ability to verbally communicate (talk). This is because as soon as languages were formed people began to talk about abstract (invisible) things, have abstract thoughts as well as the ability to imagine, dream and be creative. This creativity is mainly apparent in the stories they told, thus giving way to mythology as we know it today. Stories about gods, aliens, dragons, demons, and devils which were captivating, scary and adventurous were soon widespread. In the past, natural events were feared and since no explanation could be given, every feared phenomenon became a god. As these were explained over time, the idea of a visible god was changed to an invisible god. Because almost everything that appears in the world has been explained or is close to being explained. Science has surrounded every field. When it comes to the issue of needs, human beings are emotional by nature. That is, they feel the need for shelter and worship. They always need to do this against something bigger than themselves. Children cry for their parents, women like their spouses. So, this is due to their weakness. He is also a god. Therefore, there is a need for shelter in natural disasters. Because there is no way to deal with the fear of them with other people. Something bigger is sought and this void is filled with God. Also, we see a question of a supreme being, which arose very naturally when people attempted to answer questions like; "Where did our rituals come from? or Who began everything? Or Who was the first father? Or who was the first mother? Unable to think that any of the powers with which they interacted with could have originated all these things, they hit upon a rather speculative monotheistic explanation.
