Can Evolution explain this? (Re: The biological evolution of religious belief)

maybe someone has already answered what I'm going to. I don't feel like reading all the posts right now. However. . .We have a need to explain things. For whatever reason, we want to know why we exist, what our purpose in life is, and why does the sun always come up in the morning and go to bed at night?What does evolution have to say on this matter? nothing. Those previous questions tend to philosophical (and more specifically, metaphysical).When we don't have science to answer our questions (and science uses natural explanations) we turn to the supernatural. Back when we thought the sun came up and went down, it was explained that a chariot pulled the sun across the sky and when the charioteer went to bed the sun did. Nothing rational in that. Non-rational, yes.
