What you never attended a biology class? Humans came from natural selection.

They didn't understand it, but just believed it, and there is a big difference. The vast majority of people believe in things that are not true, like throughout the human history majority of people believed that Amber has healing powers, but it doesn't.

If there was one true God then there would be only one religion, but probably not even that because God would be part of science.

Anyway, you are going off-topic and meandering into other topics.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
