Well, you ask a question, which must have been rhetorical, since you followed it with a declarative sentence which is based on a personal presumption, devoid of facts, ignoring history and only minimally apologetic. So your last sentence is the real question:
A: Last religion. If last means chronological, then certainly it followed Christianity which followed Judaism. But it is not even last in terms of origination, as Mormonism, or even Scientology, are religions that have been initiated in the past hundred years.
B. Most Complete: How doesn one improve on the Original Seven Universal Laws of Noach. Judaism received three addition laws pertaining to them as CHosen to be the Priest nation for the rest of the world, and according to TORAH, that election was permanent until the end of the world. World hasnt ended, so it is still in effect.
C. WHat was Original, and never duplicated by any other religion, was the National Revelation on Mt Sinai. There is a ONE of a Kind,,,where GOD spoke to over 2 million people at one time. NO other religion can make the same claim. Every other religion may have its holy prophets, or holy men, or priests or leader, or pastor, who may or may not claim to have had some special revelation, but its usually a false claim, perpertrated on a gullible audience which have been fooled into believing this false prophet. All the claims for holy books, written by aspiring holy men, which on close examination are patently poor copies of the Torah/Tanakh, or blatant pseudoapigrahy, or just fantasy fiction, which includes both the Christian New Testament and Islam, Quran, or Koran, as well as Mormonism.
What can any one add to these command:
WOrship the ONE Creator GOD.
DOnt blaspheme this ONE Creator GOD, by calling a man god.
Dont murder, DOnt Steal, Dont Commit adultery, DOnt harm animals unnecessarily, and Establish courts of Justice. WHat good command could you add to these basic rules of life. They are complete and cover every aspect of our relationship with GOD, and man. How well they may be understood, or how well anyone responds in obediance may be different individually, but I see no religion improving these basic laws of behaviour. But maybe you have new revelation from GOD....should be interesting to hear what it is that improves on these. Sincerely

All of god's created religions are good....Judaism, Christianity and Islam...in that order of creation
Judaism-a foundation to faith, the first of the Arabhamic religions was created by god to bring revelation to humans.
Christianity-the next level of faith, bringing a more moral sense to religion and focusing on family rights and salvation of sin...however, christianity swayed off the course when people began to believe that Jesus (PBUH) was god, that was the intent, Jesus was a mortal prophet just like Moses (PBUH), Arabraham (PBUH) and Muhammad (PBUH), as well as hundreds of others before him.
Islam-the final word of god, the new testament fortold the coming of the last prophet which then came in the form of Muhammad (PBUH). Islam reiterates the beliefs of Judaism and Christianity and fixes the HUMAN MADE flaws of both religions, brings back the eating code ie. no pork or alcohol, which christianity forgot about, but Judaism kept alive. Gave the final verses on the end of time when Jesus will return with Muhammad to bring mankind to the final chapter of life, death.
All three religions were god created and therefore all beautiful and perfect in their own divine way...and of course all three have been corrupted and tainted by human hands, most notably, The Pharises in Judaism, the Catholic Church in Christianity, and the terrorists in Islam.

Each world religion contains nuggets of wisdom, nuggets of divine revelation and nuggets of truth. I won't say one is necessarily better than the other. However, it does seem Christianity is more permissive in some way as there are no strict dietary laws (Judaism and Islam) and God doesn't need to be worshipped 5 times a day (Islam).

You said it! The women are free in the other religions. Thats what The other religions have. Why would you want to be in a religion where your wife doesn't have the freedom to be herself? To become her own person.
Christianity = The only thing you have to do is believe in Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Your accepted & Loved for who you are. and your husbands don't make a slave of you.

Islam !
Just because some bad people say that they are muslims, it doesn'y make islam evil. If you learn more about islam, you'll know that it encourages peace and makes everyone in the world equal !
If anybody thinks that AlQa'ida or Bin Ladin represnt Islam, then he's wrong!

Its crazy how the people who follow those religions are always at each others throats yet they all can be traced back to the very same old guy. There is no best. They are all paths to some higher truth.

Jews, Christians, and Muslims came from the same root (all of them share the same old testament).
Only Christians have the new testament. They all worship the same God (The Creator of Heaven and Earth, Spirit of Holiness, Love, and Goodness). Yahweh is Jewish word for God. Allah is Arabic word for God. All three religions refer to the same God.
Jesus is the son of God. Only Christians believe in Jesus as the one prophesized in the old testament as the coming of the Saviour (Emmanuel / Messiah) who will help humans from the power of the Spirit of evil / sin (Satan). Jews do not believe in Jesus as Emmanuel/ Messiah, and so they are still waiting for Him to come until this day. Muslims believe in Jesus as the Great Prophet who has a miraculous power to heal the sick. In Arabic, Jesus is called "Isa." But Muslims do not acknowledge Jesus the same as God.
Before Christians and Muslims existed, there was only Judaism. Then came the separation: Christians (Those who believe in Christ). Then came Muslims (Those who belive in Christ as "Isa" and also the words of the last prophet of God, which is Muhammad - But they do not consider Muhammad the same as God as well)
Since these 3 religions came from the same root (Adam and Eve, Abraham (or Ibrahim), and Isaac... etc... Their teachings are pretty much the same. They all believe in the laws of Moses (10 commandments are included).
Those who kill for the sake of religion is not the religion itself. Because the religion does not endorse people to kill as the matter of fact, the other way around.
Over time, as society develops, it became hard to distinguish religion and TRADITION. Tradition alot of times are in conflict with the real teachings of the religion. People / society's own choices are alot of times in conflict with the real teachings of religion.
If you are born in a Jewish family, you are automatically a Jew by birth.
If you are born in Arab, Iran, Egypt, and surroundings, Turkey, some African countries, some ex-Russian countries, you're most likely to be a Muslim because the majority of the people are Muslims.
Similarly, If you are born in Western countries (the US, Canada, France, England, Germany, Italy, Australia, etc) you're most likely to be a Christian.
But since these are religions (NOT limited to nations), people around the world may adapt the belief.
As for women....
It is morally right in the old testament days that they submit to their husbands and present themselves in a humble manner towards others (to prevent adultery). So actually Judaism, Christianity and Islam are in accordance with this law (according to the bible/ Torah/ Al Quran).
In the West, ever since the feminist movement in the middle of the 1900, women are given a chance to have the same rights as men. Hollywood-buzz also in the middle of 1900s made women's to dress minimally every year.
Whereas in other continents this is still not the case where they still embrace their conservative values.
What is the best religion? Don;t know because these 3 religions are pretty much has the same core teachings.
I guess the question should be what is the best political / traditional belief... conservative or liberal?

Islam is evil. It promotes nothing but heinous evil. Anyone who is muslim should be deeply ashamed that people are finding out all about the incredible depth of evil that pervades everyone and everything about Islam. Quite frankly, I don't understand how you can stand living with the knowledge of this. It's one thing to be evil scum. It is quite another to have everyone know that you are evil scum.

No religion has the absolute truth, since none of them can be proved nor disproved by the empirical method.
There are no religions "more right" than the rest. All depends on your faith on them.
