In his book ''The Long War Against God'' (1989), Dr. Morris takes the nonconformist position that most human beings started out believing in a single Creator God, but then gradually moved towards polytheism and animism. Most anthropologists—who uncritically accept evolutionary theory, long ages, and reject the Bible as historically accurate—take the opposite position. Morris's position is affirmed in Romans 1:21-22.
