I kind of believe it. I think before monotheism people were much more free and diverse in their thinking. They were more just natural to their own beliefs and human nature. The greeks and Egyptians loved culture. They loved to see about how other humans were living in the world. The most celebrated people in Athens for example were often travellers because everyone wanted to hear their stories from far off lands.
In modern times the culture is extremely strict. Everything from your beliefs to your clothing to who you are supposed to love, is heavily policed by the culture. I think this is the main reason you can hardly find a person anymore that has any original ideas or can think rationally, or see the bigger picture. Our DNA is degenerating.
