And thus is the reason behind their nature being stupid and illogical.

but back on track to the topic at hand.. there does seem to be a repetitive savior theme .. repeated in different cultures..

Christ, Mohammed, etc. were all living people. There is documented evidence to their existence. Christ was a Jewish extremist, that's his claim to fame. Mohammed, born over 500 years after Christ was martyred, was a military leader that conquered several Arabic cities like Mecca and Medina.
If you want a royal mindfuck about religions, the Muslims have an empty tomb next to Mohammed's designated specifically for Christ.

and most creation myths involve a "great flood and certain patterns Cristian trinity, Hindu, or Buddhist godhead.. ect.
|
There is evidence of "great floods" happening in the past 10 millennia due to the end of the most recent ice age, volcanic eruptions, comets/meteor strikes, etc. Nothing to say "an all powerful god" had a hand in it. All the "great flood" myth shows is that natural disasters, that couldn't be explained at the time, was given a "divine instigator". This leads me back to my point about "unexplainable coincidences given divine origins to appease the urge to understand the unexplained."

It would be interesting to look at all the similarities that occur in the worlds most predominant religions.

Other than they're the same fucking things? Seriously, go read the Quran and the Bible. They say the same thing. The Torah is actually the first five books of the Old Testament (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy).

oh and a quick Ps to the god talk.. some people see god as a blob in the sky, or a ball of light, a man on the cloud , a man of flesh and bone , or a man with knowledge of science in another religion... how a person defines God would also affect any discussion on the matter so kinda take into account that everyone might not define God as you do and therefore some can claim his/her/it's existence when others cannot based upon how they Define God

Due to the "liquid" nature of "God", it is highly illogical that there is one. If there was a "God", his form wouldn't be ever-changing from person to person.
