yeppers, i believe both statements.
1) sure, why not? i think most people who dont want to believe the 6 day creation story have trouble because they trust the theory of evolution rather than the Bible.
2) yes here to.
John 14:6 says (nkjv)
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
As to people not knowing Jesus:
Rom 1:20 (nkjv) For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
and
1 John 2:23 (nkjv) Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
Can somebody have a relationship with God without knowing the story of Jesus? Sure. But a person who does indeed know God, if they are later told the story of Jesus, will recognize Jesus as God. However, anybody who knows the story of Jesus and denies Jesus as God, does *not* know the Father! "Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either".
Also, something interesting just to note is that in Romans 1:20 it says that "even His eternal power
and Godhead".
If you have questions about the second question, Romans goes into it pretty well in the first chapters.
