Ever wonder how someone could fall for a god like Baal, or Molech? Doesn't it seem kind of dumb to believe in gods like that? And some would worship YHWH and Baal or other gods, hoping to get the best of both words.
But are modern unbelievers any more sophisticated? Are liberal christians any different? I would submit, 2 new gods have emerged in our postmodern culture. They are personified as mother nature and father time. Between these two gods we have all we need to explain all the complexity and specificity we see in the universe. Some reject the true God for these gods, and some add them to their christianity.
The religion of our day is philosophical naturalism. Its priests of course are scientists (experts in natural processes, who adhere to philosophical naturalism). They greatly outnumber scientists that trust the Bible. Kind of takes me back to Elijah's day, when it was 400 to 1.
It's a bit uncanny. I don't think man has changed much at all.
