Religion did have good morals in theory. Not in practice.

Also, unrelated to your points, religion didn't evolve. It stayed about the same for thousands of years, despite new science.

Which one is that?

i didnt say religion only had bad morals. broken clocks and such.

but christianity in specific has a lot of flawed morals that christians handwave. like Mary being 12 when she gave birth to Jesus, or pretty much everything old testament.

claims of a perfect and just omnipotent god while stuff like that flies is sloppy.
