It's sure fire proof that the religion developed after human stopped being hunter gatherers and started being farmers/herders. It is the ideology of farmers/herders.

I don't disagree, but would say religion expanded and was elaborated after ag developed. I still see it's roots pre-ag. What else explains elaborate Neanderthal burials, complete with personal items carefully arranged? While they didn't have as much time to sit around contemplating the infinite, I still think hunter-gatherers were thinking about the big questions:
Who am I?
Why am I here?
What is my fate?
Where are the cookies?
