You're welcome. But methinks you expect too much. It takes millions of years to evolve. Thousands is a mere speck of dust in the desert.

Besides, part of the point of that story is that thousands of years later, millions (maybe billions?) of people the world over are still using the Bible as their moral guide. That being the case, it should be easy to understand why people are still behaving the way we did during Bible times.
