Instead we're still fighting over which religion is best in the Middle East ..... for 6,000 years!

The best part is that all three fighting over who has the "best" religion in the Middle East all ultimately boil down to being the same fucking religion anyway, all worshiping the same god. They just can't agree on how to worship the imaginary sky daddy so we've had umpteen years of truly pointless violence.

Except not for 6000 years.

The monotheism of the Hebrews was fairly recent, all things considered. 800 to 500 BCE.

After the destruction of Solomon's Temple, The Hebrews started retconing their holy texts to make themselves look better. They could do this because most of the previous holy texts had burned in the temple.

Read up on Second Temple Judaism. It's the period where most of the Old Testament was written. It started in 516 BCE.
