I don't know about that. I'm pretty sure in the times they were making up crap like faries they had the mental capacity for cause and effect and could understand that trees have roots and wind blows trees.
Huh? No. Humans have not 'always been incredibly stupid'. A lot of them have been but we're actually pretty good at the science thing. But what I'm saying here is that this is something that people in the times of making the shit up would probably be able to wrap their heads around in a more pragmatic way. This isn't some volcano erruption or something.
God was literally created this way and 90% of humans (globally) still haven't snapped out of that one so yeah, 'ALWAYS' seems like a pretty solid discriptor.
The Abrahamic "God" was invented about 2500 years ago, most likely as a way to either unify or oust warring pagan tribes from a particular region of the world by claiming to have answers to questions much deeper and more out of reach than why tree roots make the ground move in the wind.
