Your ideas such as they are have no basis in either logic or reality.
No dippy, it is a scientific fact that our species is far older than any first religion or even boarders.
It is also scientific fact that our planet is also much older than our species.
It is also scientific fact that our universe is older than our species.
Those scientific facts are not in dispute.
It was understandable that our species back then made very bad and clumsy attempts at answering the meaning of life and the nature of reality. But it simply looks silly now and even beyond silly it is still having the negative affect of causing divisions and prevents global stability.
Now, nobody should claim you can end religion by force. But again, that was then, this is now. Liking a claim does not constitute evidence. A history of passing claims down to the next generation also does not constitute evidence. The ancient Egyptians truly believed as much as any theist today in their polytheistic gods, and for 3,000 years they were very successful centering their lives around very false claims.
Most humans adapt the local religions of the societies they are born into. If that constituted reality all the religions would be correct at the same time. Wanting something to be true is not evidence.
