    Hi guys!

    Do you think that all religions come from one "original" religion?

    What do you think, what was this "first" religion?

    Thanks in advance!

    I don't see any parallels between the middle eastern religions (Judaism, Christianity, Muslim, early Egyptians etc) and the Maori religion. I suspect if you look at what the people of Papua New Guinea believe it will be different again, and native Americans and Aboriginal Australians.

    The only thing they all have in common is they all start from believing in God or a god, and that's where similarities pretty much end.

    The question to ask if: all religions come from one "original" source?

    According to ancient alien theorists, extraterrestrials were the subject of believes
    attributing aliens technological stuff as godly acts descended upon them from the skies
    thus putting them in Heavenly presents which they call God and which they used as
    subject of admiration and desires which later materialized as religious believes.

    If you are talking about known written religions, then Chinese and Hindu scrolls were
    talking about Gods around Bible's time but the fact they all talk about and describe
    the same encounter with "Gods" stories, these 3 would be the foundation of what
    people today believing in.

    :)

    I do believe in the concept of Abrahamic religions. I believe that the world had thousands of prophets and messengers many which we do not know. Could any of those evolved into different religions and/or ideologies, possibly. I also believe there are 2 sets of people, those who believe in God and those who don't.

    Does it matter to you which camp the people you interact with are in?

    The interesting thing is that it's often hard to tell the difference between the two. You get the devout church/temple/... goer who doesn't really believe but finds comfort and community via religion - and the proclaimed atheist who suffers a crisis and is suddenly doing deals with "God".

    I think they all come from Chinese whispers.
