My point is that the way in which we seek truth is skewed by our evolution. We are not configured for epistemology, we are configured for survival/procreation, so our worldviews are not true but rather useful approximations of reality.
I think you're conflating the desire for truth with the pursuit of truth. They're two different things.

One can believe that they are interested in truth, but not take the relevant epistemic steps to discover truth. Someone who believes in Yahweh *thinks* they seek and have found the truth, but they didn't even attempt to find the truth - they found what was useful to them.
