Theistic religions either claim humanity needs religion or it's in the benefit of humanity to have religion.
As either is the case, God(s) would send religion to humanity.
If this is true, you would have religion before your own "holy book" or "religion".
But those either became lost or corrupted over time.
If God allows his religion to be corrupted in the past, what makes you sure it's not corrupted now?
Stating things like "well Jesus or Mohammad sealed the revelations because the revelation says so, therefore the last revelation needs to be protected" is circular reasoning.
Saying things like "the revelation says it would be protected" is also circular reasoning.
The reason is that could have been corrupted and be a fabrication.
How do you know your religion hasn't been corrupted? Your holy book hasn't been corrupted?
