they depended on there immediate environment around them for survival. somewhat like the pre-empting your fate. the understanding of your world around you comes with time. they became more religious over a long period of time. the things in life that were not understood had to be explained to the common people. that's were your religion is important in letting you understand or at the very least feel more enlightened. for thousands of years egyptians used the forests to help build there empire. as the forest dwindled they went further into Sudan for wood that was brought down thru the river nile. that culture was not aware of the inpact it had on there environment. hence more destruction from nature and (god). case in point, after 9/11 the U.S. has shown a sharp rise in people attending there temple, church and so on. in times of disaster we look to god for answers. thanks be to god.
You're right, religion was very important to ancient Egyptians. Their whole life was based and focused on what would happen in the Afterlife. It was very important that they make the journey to the Afterworld, and serve their mighty gods.

Ancient Egyptians were polytheists--they are referred to as Pharaonic Egyptians. Modern Egyptians are mostly Muslims who are monotheistic.

You can tell that the after-life was important to the Ancient Egyptians because so much of their society was based around it: myths, ritual, art, architecture and more were all dedicated to it.

The Nile River fits your description. It was so important to the Ancient Egyptians that it became a part of their Religious beliefs. They called the Goddess of the Nile, Anuket.
They had lots of types of religions so it must been important. Also Priests are third in the social structure in ancient China, so religion must be important in ancient China.

It is a fact that the ancient Egyptians worshiped gods and goddesses in their religion, but that religion has since all but died out along with Egypt as it was before the Romans. So other modern religions claim that old religion wasn't "real" as it does not exist as it was. But, it can be argued, all religions do not end as they start out as.
