That's a very interesting post, as you can probably tell I'm reading that
book too. My concern is the mind set of today, why grown adults blindly
believe something that is obviously untrue. Then these same people make
their new found religion fit their lifestyle instead of making their
lifestyle fit their religion...it's so silly.

I'm currently reading the book "The Christ Conspiracy", which
digs *really* deep into the above insights. Extremely fascinating
reading. The authors website is <http://www.truthbeknown.com/>,
but her book contains 10x the information.
Another interesting conspiracy theory on the origin of religion,
which is pretty hard to swallow, but worth considering
nonetheless, is found in the books:
"..."The Axe was God", "The Rod Was Mercury" and "Thirty-Thousand
Gods before Jehovah", all authored by the same person. I think
these books were originally published in the 1930's or 40's. The
premise of these books, which must be taken into consideration
when reading this section, is that there was a worldwide
"PRIESTHOOD" that existed before the dawn of Christianity and it
was these "Thirty-thousand" or so HIGH Priests which ruled the
world from the hilltops among scattered Islands and mainlands.
They possessed maps which allowed them to send pirate crews of
Lower Priests through the seas to the different lands to convince
the people of the "Reality" of the various Gods which ruled the
people. Very Much like "Zardoz". These Gods and lower priests
alone knew the different languages and taught each of them to the
different peoples. No one area of people were allowed to know the
language of the other tribes or groups of people. The Gate which
one could not pass was the "Babylon" or "Gate of the Gods", where
one would be severely punished If trespassed. This kept the
people from sharing information and figuring out what was really
going on. This was also the "Garden of Eden" where the gods
presided. Only the "Gods" knew of the powers of "Fire" and
gunpowder and could cause great disturbances which made the
people fear the repercussions and deliver to the "Gods" Gold,
jewels, and various sacrifices including humans. The Rod of
Mercury was carried by the Lower Priest, hereafter referred to as
just the "Priests", which were one rank lower than the "Gods",
the highest priests. This Caudaceas would allow them to pass
unharmed into the different areas to administer limited
information to the King of the Peoples. (The King was under the
Priests). If one tribe got out of line, then "Jehovah" would
unleash his wrath by sending an army from "Baal's" land to
destroy some of "Jehovah's" people, by sending a Priest to
"Baal's" land and informing them that there was an army planning
an invasion over to the North or something. That they must attack
them and kill them etc. When this happened, the remaining people
would be frightened and say, "Well, I guess we should have
listened to Jehovah, he was right, look at how he was able to
destroy us like that".
