Many religious teachings came to be as a way to explain the unexplainable. yes the centuries passed and our scientific understanding of the world and the wider universe developed, new scientific theories rendered some of these religious ideas obsolete.

Scientific understanding of the universe and how it came to be has come a long way from the Biblical notion of God creating existence with a few words.
