A what??
"That should be interesting to theists and non-theists alike"
The market's quite flooded but good luck anyway!
Welcome!
An Urreligion is a hypotheitcal aboriginal religion that humanity shared c. 10,000 BC. All religions then would be variations of this primary source.
It's the same concept of an Urheimat applied to religious belief.

Yeh sort of. I was brought up Catholic, and still am. But professionally I do believe all religions are one. Although technically Catholicism isn't a religion, it's a church...if that makes sense.
So you could say I'm all of the above when it comes to religion, as I try to tie in all faiths and find the common themes that recur throughout their texts, rituals and traditions.
