While it MAY be true (or not, we are not certain)....it would seem to indicate that ANY belief will do.
After all, we have had (recorded human history) that predates the current incarnation of God by a few thousand years....and mankind survived.
But that is a great point....our belief in God now, does for us exactly what belief in older mythologies did for earlier humans....provide a security blanket for our fears.
But most believers today foam at the mouth when I call their religions mythologies too lol.
Also, I realize that a LOT of people need something to believe in, but not ALL do....i'm just fine admitting I don't know what comes after death (for example)....and i'm not immoral or evil (at least I hope not).
Stay safe all.
Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?
