Were there events that conspired throughout history to perpetuate belief in religion, or did the predominate religions scare/force the masses into belief?

Sorry, we don't allow throughout history questions. These tend to produce threads which are collections of trivia, not the in-depth discussions about a particular topic we're looking for. If you have a specific question about a historical event or period or person, please feel free to re-compose your question and submit it again.
