I agree, back in these days people were also smart. It's nothing more than a creation of humanity. Religion units people and makes it easy to control people. Even if humans have created the bible, god could still exist.

Living on earth is uncertain. Dangers from everywhere nature, other humans, you just want to be as save as possible. These dangers are caused by lack of resources on earth. More poor than rich people. Humans don't want to die, they struggle for survival. Everyone has his own way of doing it. This is just an example on a large scale. It's a strategy to survive by controlling people. When you have control you can predict the outcome. That information is crucial for survival especially for a king or dictator.

Death is infinity, because infinity is death. Life is finite, and finite is life. There is no hell or heaven.

I don't think this is the reason why the bible is written. I do believe this is the way religion is used today. It's like Einstein and his A-bomb. He didn't want this for humanity. Sometimes things don't go the way you like.

I cannot be sure there is a god or not. I do know that he has not the power, need or will to give his believers a peaceful life on earth. He isn't that powerful, he is probably just a thing that caused the big bang.
