which of the more than 6000 creation stories are true?

Question

Every religion has thier own story of how live and the universe was created, so which story/ stories could possibly be true, if any. explain why.

Answer 1

The one that begins, "Once upon a time there was a big bang...."

The function of religion is to answer unanswerable questions, like "Why are we here?" and "What happens when we die?" These stories may cement cultural values or give us comfort, but none of them is true in the literal sense. For truth, look to science.

Answer 2

the bible because it actually is the way scientists say that the world was probably created. the plants and fishes first. Then land animals, then humans. Archology proves this to be true.
Job 38: says god hangs the earth upon nothing. No one believed that. Not on creation story.
Isaiah told how God sits above the circle of the earth. Most people of that time believe the earth was flat. Creation stories told about the great sea monster at the edge of the earth.
Deutronomy about the hygeine laws that knew about quartine and germs and how to protect yourself. When obeyed kept them from disease.

Answer 3

From an Earthly point of view, that does sound silly. But if
one considers that the Universe is full of life. And life on a multi-
dimensional level. And has been around a very long time. They
might all be true, in relation to the beginning of different worlds
and forms of life.

Answer 4

They're all true, and they're all not true.

Were you around to observe the creation of the universe? I think not.

Quantum physics states all things are true and false until an observer sees it being one or the other.
