<Religion was this law. Judgement,punishment, by a angry god the court system.>

I think you are probably correct. Let me ask you this. Did the God of the court system you speak of come first or the God of fire, the sun God, etc. I think God at first was the answer for unsolved questions.

Who makes that big ball of fire rise up in the sky every morning?....Must be a God. Then somebody came up with the idea that if a God had that much power he could also punish people for doing wrong. That is when the whole deal probably turned messy.

Who gets to make up God's rules? The ruler. What rules will he make? Ones that benefit him. Why did the masses empower him? The masses do not feel empowered and search for leadership. ( Wow, what a scheme)

<Religion was this law. Judgement,punishment, by a angry god the court system. This could explain the apparent need for some sort of spiritual meaning in our lives.>

I'm not sure I understand your connection to spiritual meaning. Why would this court system create a desire in me for spiritual meaning? Do you mean to protect myself mentally from the horrors of the court?
