Humans would generally worship that which they feared which they believed to be responsible for events they could not control themselves or for phenomenon which they had no explanation for (deities/deity used to frighten and punish people into submission).

Isn't it interesting that this discussion has taken the route of whether there is or isn't a God? Does belief in the existence of an afterlife or the survival of the soul actually need to also believe in God? I would say no, knowing that some atheists believe in an afterlife (because they have had proof no doubt).
