Ad 2) WTF do you mean with historical trek of religion?
1- You have the ability to become a believer and get the same results so not necessarily entirely circular, more oval
2-The attesting of God or Gods throughout the long span of history show that if said being exists, he is not mortal and exists outside our understanding of linear time. Is that better?
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
