The history of religion contradicts your point. Judaism emerged in the most illiterate area of its time.

I think "immunity for brainwashing" is the wrong term. Back in the simple days people got less exposed to, how ever you would like to call it. The first ever printed western book was the f'ing bible and people in the 2000s thought the internet would spark a new era of education, you know, printing press 2.0 and such.

Ok, enough OT.

I'm pretty sure Australia was way more illerate at that time - plenty of cave and rock art going on for some 70K years prior, sure, but no written language at all even by 1788.

I meant right next to rome, egypt and persia. Palestine is right in the middle, so relative illiterate.

How do we know this?

The very fact of its emergence (and reliance on written teachings) speaks to the very opposite.

The majority of the Torah is the Oral Torah: the Written Torah is only five books (and they're not huge books, either).
