A population free of dogma entering the technological age no less would be far less vulnerable to such superstitious dribble, religiosity would be a ulta-minority position like atheism was for most of history.
You have way too much confidence in the intelligence of the average human and way too little understanding of the creativity of the selfish.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat?
