Both Jung and Freud were big on describing human consciousness as having an underlying but very powerful Unconcious in connection with the Conscious. It's fairly complex but the idea is that people everywhere have inclinations to behave in religious ways even atheists, agnostics etc. An example is the ecoparanoid AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming) religion, which started as a fanatical political movement using as its basis an unproven (still) speculative conjecture* which acquired the status (driven by fanatical intimidation/seduction,) of irrefutable dicta - now a religion defended as irrationally and sometimes violently as any other so-called "Ultimate Truth" . *Radiative Carbon Forcing of Atmospheric Black-Body Radiation - IOW, the belief that carbon dioxide/methane in the atmosphere causes significant retention of heat radiation which in turn causes climatic instability in weather. Never been proven scientifically.
