Before Adam noticed humans are mortal, humans didn't even notice there's a concept of time. Human chronicle started at the moment of this Adam's finding. Since then thanks to the development of traffic method, medicine, what we can do in our life has been much greater. Some people might have acquired an extra time to devote themselves to the activities in religious belief, might have been resulting in a corruption of religion.
But as for me the reason I engage in some religious activities is simple. I have no extra money to spend for social activities which involve luxury feast. I am able to keep in humble among people who regard humble is a criterion in their deed.
Another reason is that I might feel like giving up a social promotion. I have to face unreasonable obstacles, inconsistencies of the society in which I found no way to break out. By my willing to accept religion, I might have been trying to strike a balance with the irrationality of real society.
