True, but the Vedas are not the guiding principle in modern-day Hinduism. Vedic Hinduism died out with the arrival of Mahavira and Gautama. Modern hinduism revolves around the avataras of Vishnu: Krishna, Rama, Narasimha, etc. and around contemporary Shaivite beliefs including the worship of Ganesha.

Yes, it appears they were given truth, then mucked it all up with their own ideas of "worship"
