Quick question for you all:
a.) Judaism was founded when Moses went up Mt. Sinai on his own, and received the 2 stone tablets with the 10 commandments written on them.
b.) Christianity was founded, at best in Jesus' mind, or at worst in Paul's.
c.) Mormonism was founded when Joseph Smith got special glasses to read his magical rock.
d.) Islam was founded when Muhammed singularly received revelation from Allah.
It seems to me that all religions I am aware of were formed by single people, with experiences that only they experienced. Do you know of any religion that was formed by committee, meaning it was open-source, and many people experienced whatever phenomenal thing was being reported?
