Again, all the good reason to take a snap shot of time, that people did know a lot, and Quran even claims the polytheists knew a lot, the pagans knew a lot, they just mixed with garbage and confused their spirituality with their dark desires.
It was not that there were no hidden world nor that there was no magic or hidden beings or a gather of hidden beings and humans or powers of hidden beings that may seem like miracles to some, but, it was clear clarification that if we truly seek guidance and what is goodness but following guidance, than the guidance of God is the guidance, and for every people there is a guide, and God manifests that guide through a revelation, and that revelation is manifested through a founder who explains it, and anoints navigating captains of a ship to be sailed by his name, that further explain and make people understand the word of the founder, which is an explanation of the book of God.
And there is no power or will except by God, and by his name are all things illuminated.
No. NO THEY DID NOT!
MK our species 200,000 years ago was in our modern forum, but 200,000 years go, we had no writing, no cities, no technology. WE WERE IGNORANT as a species.
Our curiosity WAS NOT MAGICALLY, or divinely handed down to our species, BY ANY DEITY OR GOD/S.
Scientists NOW KNOW from evolution life seeks patterns, EVEN OTHER MAMMALS. We see other mammals such as chimps and elephants USE tools, such as sticks and rocks to get to food.
Our EVOLUTION lead us to language and cities, not a sky wizard.
There is no such thing as "revelation". Nobody has, is or ever will talk to a non existent being. OUR species is alone, there is no God or gods helping us. It should not frighten you to accept that. You already do fine without believing in Thor or Apollo.
