I've always thought it was because we were raised by people who seemed omnipotent at the time, people who would make bad things happen if you were "bad" and good things happen if you were "good". It seems only natural that people would extend that line of thinking into their adult lives, believing that if something bad happens, it must be in response to them doing something "bad", etc.
