There are many religions, and I don't think you are far off the mark. There is absolutely ONE truth. Our aim as mankind should be to find that ONE truth. That is why faith is so important. If God descended on mankind once every 10 years and said, X religion is correct, everyone believe X, then we like sheep could all believe X, there wouldn't be faith, there would be blind obedience. Instead, God gave man enough evidence to believe in him, and the deeper you dig, the more "anomalies" in the pagan beliefs, and more align with the Bible. Many who have set out to disprove the Bible, often become Christians themselves, and very fervent for it too. There is enough out there that you could come to a completely different conclusion as well. There's enough confusing things out there, that it's hard to know what is true and not true, and this doesn't even factor in the fake news media outlets confusing the confusion even more. So then, each man believes in something, the atheist, agnostic, the sheep, the devout, the thinker. They all have a belief, and most put themselves as God, with believing we know better than God. That's not to say we shouldn't question our churches, our Bible translations, or even ask God, "WHY!?" because these things in and of themselves aren't wrong, but many are led down pathways of evil because of it. They say, all churches are evil, or all translations except X are wrong and heretical, or I'm right, and everyone else, even God is wrong, I'm the master of my own life, you can easily become like the woman from Proverbs who says, "I am, and besides me, there is no other." Most sins we commit, we actually place ourselves above God, as you break down the sins. Take theft for example. You may steal something from a rich man, he won't notice, and you think he doesn't deserve it, and you've done so much good in your life, it shouldn't matter. So you steal. People said, ok, God says don't steal, and you stole, book closed, say X Hail Mary's and go about your business, not a big deal. I disagree, you steal, but what was the bigger sin, what God has given you isn't enough, you tell God that his gifts are insufficient for your needs, and you need to go around his back to get what you deserve. The sin is predominantly a sin against God, not against man, as the rich man could easily replace what you stole if he even noticed it was gone in the first place. This is the depths of sin that people even in the best of churches out there are still lacking. I ask, why do our fellow believers not know this, this OUGHT to be basic. in closing i've ranted too much. I don't think that is true of all religions, very broad brush, but i think you have validity to your claim.
Sounds like man made up a bunch of different religions to keep you all from getting along so they can control you.
