I like this. I'm an agnostic and I read this book called "The God Theory" by Bernard Haisch. The author is a man of science and approaches this problem from a (semi) scientific perspective.

Over the course of the book, he makes hypotheses and challenges them and eventually arrives at a theory that seems a workable explanation of the state of the world and religion in general.

It's a very interesting read and I would 100% recommend it. It's been a while since I read it, but his theory at the end is not very different from your comment.
