Unresolved contradictions have the brain analysis engine iterate until the contradiction is resolved. Some questions makes it loop wildly.
Sometimes, it's the question that's defective, some other time, it's the basic premises that are lacking to stop the looping.
When this happens, the individual feels an inner pressure, an anxiety to solve the problem.
"God" is the way people with less rational thinking abilities find the least painfull to break the loop.
Generally speaking, God is only a sub-set of the "primacy of consciousness" idea, though.
Now, if you speak of religion, which has very little to do with God, then, I think that in small doses, it's a good think. Religion is an essential regulating ingredient of social structures (never mind that my libertarian tendencies do not like that very much).
