Religion started as a way to explore how everything came into being, such as in Greek, how different gods, Polytheism, dominate different elements of people's lives.
The idea of Christianity and it's explanation of this world didn't become widespread until the end of the Roman Empire. However, when it was first introduced in the Roman Empire, the emperors prosecuted them because it preached equality and a forgiving God, which was at the time, (equality) a threat to the Roman Emperors. The reason for the rise of Christianity is because after it is established, it consisted of different hierarchy within the church. The hierarchy of the church usually consisted something like this: the pope/headmaster at the top, then the archbishop, then the bishop, then the priest and the pupils in the bottom. This type of hierarchy made it possible for the emperor to maintain control over its people, by staying in favor of the pope.
I do admit religion is uniting and healthy, but suggesting that Christian God's way is the right way is too far.
To be quite honest, I don't exactly agree with Darwin's theory of evolution. There are some flaws. HELLO!?!??!?! It's a THEORY!!! Does that make it a fact or a law? No, it is a theory based on a place called Galapagos Island. Darwin believed that the vast variations of species is induced by natural selection. Natural selection is the process by which those heritable traits that make it more likely for an organism to survive and successfully reproduce become more common in a population over successive generations.
From the same deduction, does the existence of places such as the city of Babylon prove a book? All it tells us is that the Bible didn't make up a false city. By your deduction, I can write a book with a few other people based on an old city in England and that makes my story a fact?
The bible is a book, it is written by many authors (do your research). It is also a theory on how the world is created and how people should be governed. The story is perfected over the time. However, you cannot expect everyone to believe the Christian's explanation of the world compared to those who believed the theory of evolution just because you are on the Christian's side. Keep your aggressive tone to yourself.
