I believe that it were these very people who actually started religion. It were these very people who came up with a bunch of myths and legends, named it religion. They were the so-called chosen ones, the people talking to an All-Knowing God. These people whenever confronted with a scientific question will use their limited knowledge and ability to com eup with an answer. This is what I think.
"The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one."
