The main reason for a polytheism/monotheism believe system is easy to explain. It is to explain the unknown. If there is one thing people are afraid of, it's the unknown. Look at the Greeks and Romans. They had a god for everything that couldn't be explained. (ie. Apollo = Sun, Selene = Moon) Over time science and human discovery had weeded these myths down. I would say that almost all religions are down to a monotheism system to explain the last mysteries in our lives. I also agree with a previous post that when people start contemplating death, that a belief system is bound to develop. Personally, I am happy that people can draw strength and courage from a god in their daily lives however I think people take the "god" think a little too far.
