Since Israel fought with them, and King David killed Goliath, I would say that they were barbaric. They probably believed and worshiped in many gods, being polytheistic.
According to the Bible, the Philistines worshiped the god Dagon (among many other deities, including Baal), as seen by the following passage:
2When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3And when they of Ashdod arose early on the morrow, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
4And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.
5Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
6But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the coasts thereof.
7And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
Apparently they worshiped Ashtaroth and Baal-zebub (known as the 'god of Ekron - a Philistine city) as mentioned in the verses below.
However, no archaeological evidence whatsoever has been found to support this account of a Dagon-centric Philistine religion. This is not to say that there is no evidence for Dagon at all -- the deity is attested from Mesopotamia to Ugarit in Syria -- but there is no evidence for Dagon's place in the Philistine pantheon. Rather, the archaeological evidence for Philistine deities during Iron Age I (the biblical period) consists of small figurines of female deities and lion-shaped libation jugs -- nothing that would hint at a male supreme deity.

It was Isaiah, found in below scriptures...
"In the year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it, at the same time the LORD spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, 'Go, and remove the sackcloth from your body, and take your sandals off your feet.' And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
"Then the LORD said, 'Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia, so shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians as prisoners and the Ethiopians as captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. Then they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation and Egypt their glory. And the inhabitant of this territory will say in that day, 'Surely such is our expectation, wherever we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and how shall we escape?' ' " (Isaiah 20:1-6)

It depends on how this is meant. The Philistines made repeated incursions into territory held by the Ancient Israelites and were repulsed by a number of Israelite monarchs. The Bible argues that King David was among the most successful of these. However, the Philistines never completely left the southwest Levant (simply becoming Roman citizens) and some current Israeli cities, like Ashqelon and Ashdod, are built on former Philistine territory.

In biblical times, books were kept as short as possible, so that they could fit onto one scroll of papyrus. The trip from Gaza, where Acts says that Philip baptised the eunuch, to Azotus (Ashdod) was unimportant and hardly worth recounting, but the author of Luke and Acts was good at miracles. As soon as Philip had baptised the eunuch, he disappeared and reappeared in Azotus, by the Spirit of the Lord (Acts 8:39-40).
