Finally the TRUE answer to why we have so many religions!

[Undeceived]

Either one religion is right or they are all wrong. Logically, there is only one truth and people would create all kinds of other ‘pseudo-truths’ to win fame and money. Even atheists believe their atheism is the only truth. To say we should dismiss all religions because there are so many to choose from is like saying philosophy is worthless because there are so many different views, or science has many theories for one phenomenon so they must all be wrong, or atheism is unreasonable because some atheists still believe in the supernatural while others don’t. I might point out that all religions but Christianity are law-oriented (action for salvation), which lies within natural human tendencies to want to earn our way somewhere. They also don't work hard to gain converts (unless it's a requirement), and their founders all have clear motives (Muhammad- power through war, multiple wives; Hinduism- caste system with priests at top). Christianity, on the other hand, has salvation by grace, works unselfishly to spread the gospel, and nearly all the founders received martyrdoms for their efforts. The Bible is also anti-authority and continually urges churches to be led by a collection of elders, rather than a pope, and to have personal, equal relationships with God and His Word. Finally, a religion such as Christianity is true in many people's minds because by logic and all observable evidence the universe cannot make itself and therefore has a creator and only one creator.
