I'm not questioning the fact that Greeks, Egyptians had their practices and traditions and stories and that it predates Christianity. What I'm questioning is what makes those vedic, Greek, Sumerian practices into religious practices. That is where I'm coming from.Oh well... Then it is the same thing that makes christian, judaic, islamic, etc. practices into religious practices.
