Yes, very condescending, in the same way Neanderthals were seen as primitive cave men until hard evidence showed they were at least as advanced as modern humans in many ways. Also, this is a completely different species of human. A bit presumptuous interpreting there actions from homo sapiens mindset. For all we know they could have been Spock like atheists.
