The pharaohs believed that they were gods; they also believed in many gods (except for Akhenaton, who was a monotheist).

Where is it stated that you are born knowing God?

There is no "statement that you are born knowing God." Simply, reason tells the human mind that there is Something/Someone Who is of greater intellect than we humans. We humans cannot create something from nothing. On the other hand, God can. Therefore, this thing, called natural reason, which every human possesses, tells us of God's existence. Yet, this means that though we know of God's existence, but we do not know God. Not unless we allow Him to speak to us and we ourselves search to find Him. So no one is born "knowing God," but through natural reason we know He exists. To deny His existence, no offense to all atheists, is really to deny the existence of everything around us.
