 * Terror Management Theory**

The theory is about trying to make a rational reason for human behavior when life is threatened. They go into talking about how people use religion to tell them whats going on and justify what is going to happen.

 * Mark Leary**

He talked about the belongingness motive and how it causes people to go and join groups. This happens because most people don't want to be on their own and want to feel as they belong to a group. This shows why people would want to go out and find a church during hard times because they wouldn't want to be by themselves.
