Why does religion determine morals so much? [Spirituality & Religion]

Growing up around Catholics, this was extremely prevent. I suffer from depression and anxiety, but I was taught in catholic school that it was all in my head and it was attention seeking. But that is socially acceptable in the place I was. For Amish, technology is evil.
Why do people put so much into what "God" wants and just be good to themselves and others?

@ajsk13: well, you tell me. When someone tells you that everything is in your head, you can only go inwards for comfort. Over time it takes a toll.
