Can't tell if you're being serious or doing a bit, but playing along, it's no coincidence because most major religions want to act as the Source of All Knowledge for people and asking questions makes that more difficult. The ones that didn't ban questions probably didn't get as popular, other than maybe Buddhism, though I don't have any direct experience with Buddhism as a religion, more just its philosophies that do seem to encourage thought and questioning (but then again, Christian philosophy seems to encourage generosity and kindness but how much that is truly valued seems to vary quite wildly by congregation and/or sect).
Though I'd also say that the return to ignorance is well underway.
