Confusion of emotions and personal life choices. Denial of our natural origins. Pseudoscientific fallacy of comparing humans to other animals for natural selection, Social Darwinism, but at the same time it contradicts this just after with another conflicting argument, evidence of more confusion. Classic "made in God's image" to deny the fact that our deities have human attributes because humans imagine/create them.
What really distinguishes us is our brain. It comes with benefits as well as drawbacks, we can alienate ourselves, but are also capable of survival and decisions to a point where natural selection no longer applies to us. The evidence that we are still animals, that are great apes, that we are mammals, is still overwhelming. Our condition also comes with challenges, our large head makes birth difficult and sometimes deadly. Some of our back problems are also due to bipedality. Some of our other problems are shared with other mammals. It is all evidence that there was no direct design involved.
Because our brains can also trick us and because we are conscious of our condition such as mortality, we tend to fantasize a lot. We also develop social systems. We communicate and transmit information, true and false. Religion is a result of all of that. Delusions, fantasies, needs, culture, organization, social control.
If your deity exists, what about other and older deities? Considering that yours is the result of your particular culture as well as your personal fantasies, because everybody adapts their "view of god", there could be no other way because imaginary beings cannot teach us. Similarly, our afterlife fantasies vary a lot depending on our environment and culture. For some hunter gatherers, the afterlife is a jungle with ancestors. For animists and pantheists, the "conception of god" is very different than for Christians. The conception varies between Judaism and Christianity and also within Christianity, for instance in Gnostic Christians. The reason is just that it's our own human concepts. Some people understand this and are agnostic or atheist.
Due to evolution, we also have layers of sometimes conflicting systems. Our immune system is primitive and can lead to survival as well as death, when it overreacts. Our brain allows us to go beyond with medicine but also with other behaviors, hygiene, adaptations when sick, etc. Emotions permit a primitive communication and alert system and positive emotions are also a driving force, in all animals there's even some level of empathy. But humans can also study emotions and psychology and direct their lives and develop communication beyond the emotional immediate, up to the institutional... We have the primitive strong sex drive of other animals, but sophisticate our desires and rituals and social structures beyond all others. We even have fashions... We know of instinctive territorial and jealousy emotions but can also mature beyond those and people who don't can even become misfits in a more complex society.
"If evolution were real, that would mean God was a liar."
Misled mortals making misled imaginary dieties explain this. If evolution were not real, this would mean that all of the strong evidence is lying. This would lead to a deceptive creator who made the world in one way to then lie about how it's made to confuse humans and punish them for discovering the actual makeup? We didn't invent evolution, but we develop working explanations for what we found.
We also discovered the very conflicting and ignorant origin myths of ancient humans and can analyse these. Young Earth Creationism is a modern pseudoscientific doctrine from a twisted rendition of discoveries about the world as well as harmonies from specific nationalist myths assembled together. The ideology not only conflicts with evolution but also with the age of the earth which can be estimated using very strong and reliable science, including things in nature that were determined to be constants.
For that reason, you have an endless growing firehose of ridiculous false reactionary arguments whenever you learn of something that conflicts with the doctrine. Many Christians aren't even in that nonsense and accept the findings of science.
Considering all of this, it's important to determine why those who mislead you do, instead of deflecting it with doubt and uncertainty propaganda attacking all of knowledge with grandiose conspiracy theories demonizing society.
