Why is it when you look at all the religions, they all say the same things ?
Why is it almost all stories in the Bible have a root in the original Sumerian text's that are thousands of years older ?
(i.e. Creation Story, Flood Story etc)
Even the story of Mosses is suspect for as a infant, he was placed in a basket covered in BITUMEN and placed in the Nile. Well guess what, There is no BITUMEN along the Nile. But there is along the Euphrates river in Iraq where the Sumerians lived.
More can be understood about religion when you can trace the migration of Language, Culture, Arts and Customs of the people.
Much of which was spread around the globe by those we seem to know as the Phoneticians. Even though the Egyptians and Greeks like to take credit for it. But I think most of those Phoneticians were migrated descendants of what we call Atlantis.
History is written by the victor and there have been plenty of battles for not so good of reasons ! Probably plenty more in the name of religion in store for us. But it really is only a story about power and greed.

300BC? Try 6000BC. The god christians and muslims worship, DEUS, from ZEUS, Jupiter, and DYEUS PITAR (father god) all go back to the thunderer in the sky that scared the indo-european horse lords.
They say storms on the steps are awesome spectacles, you can see the lightening strike, and the thunder is a huge explosion. They're sitting there cowering and hoping the next bolt doesn't fry them. That is Dyeus Pitar. As they kicked the shit out of everybody, they displaced the moon goddesses and 9 headed dragons and such with DEUS who is god today. And of course allah and elohim come from the same root.
