Don't get me wrong.Just because i don't believe a religion.I am not anti religion.I actually find it very interesting and a good look at how people thought in ancient times.

But who said all of these people open to other religions believe in one or many Gods?

There is no one answer is there? :laugh:

Yes, but the people killing in the name of religion are still a very small minority when it comes to these religions as a whole. The actions of these extremists are also commonly going against the religion they claim to be fighting for.

It was 2009!!!! :bawling:

Well by definition if you are Christian you believe in one god and his incarnations Jesus and the holy ghost but ultimately one god.Christianity is a monotheistic religion.

.

Well you've just described a good example.

If Christians can believe in a holy trinity concept then it's not a world away from the Hindus and their belief system of a few beings coming from one "God". Separate elements but all essentially one.

But, again, this is going back to interpretation and culture. The idea of a "God" being a one person thing is kind of simplistic. The name itself means something different to everyone.

One religion can respect another cultures interpretation of the same thing.

And yeah, believe me I know. I learnt about splinter groups on that Doctor Who episode :flutter:

Isn't that a Christian thing too

Omg :flutter:

Well I do them when I have a shower so they are clean and almond milk flavour shower gel smelling.

So what about the really old religions which came a long time before even Judaism?They died out with their respective cultures.Many of them believed in many gods with different abilities and duties.If they were not the true religions and don't exist because nobody believes them anymore then why are todays religions any different?
If a religion or concept such as polytheism can die out with its culture then it is not the true one is it?Again there cannot be only one god or many different ones.Religion only exists because people believe it.Proving that it is infact a man made concept.If it was'nt then it could'nt die out and would be eternal through all of time.Looking to the past helps to form the most plausable explanation.Religions can fade out with there believers.Therefore the believers are the ones who create god/s not the other way around.

Just because "belief" in those ancient religions died out doesn't mean any of them were totally wrong though, does it?

We're all fallible humans who don't actually know anything for certain, we just have our beliefs and our faith which is different for everyone.

Your definition of the word "proof" is interesting. Nothing's been proven.

Quote me mentioning robots or aliens. Please.

It is proof because it has happened.Religions died with the people who followed them.That is irrefutable.They were created by people and died with those people.Man made.If they were not man made then they would not die out with their believers.A religion can only exist while there are people to believe it.

How is it irrefutable?

It's not in the slightest.

Not much "died out" as much as evolved anyway. The religions today are some form of those early religions.

It's not a case of people stopping believing because they were incorrect and starting a new one.

But just because somebody doesn't believe something, doesn't make it non-true?

In that case maybe Christianity is not true and the ancient Egyptian religion is.The concept of which totally contradicts Christianity.Many gods vs one god.

Eh?

That's called different people believing different things.

I think you've confused yourself.

Me believing A and you believing B isn't proof of either one of us being wrong. But this is oversimplifying a very complex topic.

:nono:

i'll just quote marsh, he said it better than me lmao
