I'm saying for myself, I would believe without a doubt if a civilization from another planet had the same texts as Earth.Originally Posted by geoff
yes, all religions are similar, the books teach the same things, and the stories are all almost exactly alike, the only difference is the names/ language. which is totally understandable, from a logical standpoint. if all religion spawned from one religion, then since not everyone speaks the same language, the wording and names would have to change. unfortunately, people became far too proud of "their" religion and began things such as crusades, inquisitions, and jihads... thinking their religion is the be all end all religion. often seen in die hard Christians stating other religions worship "false Gods" when in reality no one is wrong, they are all the same, just with a language barrier.Originally Posted by zimabog
to better explain this, go to youtube or google and watch Zeitgeist. sure the guy rags on religion the entire time, but I think the similarities between the religions give them more credit for being possibly true as opposed to discredit them. however this guy does make some good points as well.
