That's what I'm so interested in is how so many christians, jews, hindus and muslims can have so much faith that their religion is the one. What qualities do these have that have made them stick. Why are there not any believers in Odin or Zeus or the pantheon of other dead religions. How many of the dead religions had "heavens" or an afterlife that was better than the real life. That's an interesting question to me. Also, another cool experiment would be if you could somehow take fundamentalist christians back in time but raise them as muslims and see if they're just as fundamentalist about it.
Like I've said before.....I don't rule out a higher intelligence existing and guiding us, but I feel the chances that any of the current religions have got it right are infinitesimally small.
