There's a difference between a "dictated religion" and a "common belief", though, don't you think? I was tring to argue against the existence of the former in stone age times. I think that the latter is probably a more useful term, though. A common belief is something that everyone shares because they all genuinely do feel the same way (there's that word *feel* again!). A dictated religion is a very different matter, encouraging people to ignore their *feelings* and to listen to a middleman instead.
