No, it started out as bullshit tales told around a camel dung campfire. The Egyptians industrialized religion.

That too. Why worship god A, when god B is supposedly more powerful. Your god is the volcano, but my god is the sky, that sort of thing.

When Yahweh kicked Egypt's ass it was to show that the most powerful country in the world could be beating by the Hebrew god. Of course other peoples rolled their eyes at that shit.
