That seems non-sequiter. We made Gods doesn't mean they exist. So what if we made meaning, value, praise, morals, justice, it's a perception.
You may feel superior to someone, that is your perception, but it doesn't make you superior.
Like wise you can feel an act is praiseworthy, it doesn't make it praiseworthy.
You can value a thing, but it can be total without value.

I don't know. Maybe humanity is not ready for the truth and will never be. Perhaps majority will always incline to delusions.
Even if we end religion, people might still incline to believe a eternal objective judge for example and a soul.
They might delude themselves that they know.
