How could these three be man-made?
Torah was revealed to Moses (pbuh) by god....
Gospel was revealed to Jesus (pbuh) by god....
Quran was revealed to Muhammad (pbuh) by god...
IF YOU THINK MEN HAD ADDED THEIR TOUCH TO TORAH AND GOSPEL THROUGH TIME,THEN I ASSURE YOU IT IS NOT THE SAME THING WITH QURAN........

ALL RELIGIONS ARE MADE BY MAN!
No religion on earth is completely described by any God. We worship in a manner in which we decide. Even the "Bible only" churches, professing complete adherence to the Bible worship in modern ways. Christ had no supporters playing electric guitars and amplified pianos and such. There weren't Rock and Roll beats with Tama Drum kits.
Jesus didn't have his apostles preach in churches, but out in streets and on hillsides. Jesus didn't read the Bible, at least not as we know it. There was no single collection of scripture gathered by man and codified, but rather, he chose from the scrolls available at the time. Indeed, the KJV has references from the apostles to scrolls not included in the protestant version of the Bible.
Jesus was Jew, and modern Christians certainly don't worship as Jews.
Anyway, we create our own religions. Even if some God gave specific and complete instructions, we'd still add our own slant.

Like everyone is saying, religion is man made. Spirituality has nothing to do with religion. If I understand your question correctly, most laws of society are based on religion (ie do not murder, etc) because they are guidelines from God or just basic common sense. Most religions have a basic idea that can help us all live together on this planet without killing each other. That's the idea anyhow.

First of all I want you to know that you are not wrong. Just that you are not right.
Religion and law has nothing to compare with each other. Religion is not for punishment and award. It is for you to understand the meaning of your life and show you the ways to apply it in order to be smooth.
Don't ask me whether God create the earth and human or Jesus was born from virgin Mary. Humbly, my answer is I don't know. I don't know does not mean that it is not true. it is not our level of understaning also. for my human level, I have a religion so that I can manage my life to live meaningfully in this world. that's all i can tell you and that's all I have to be needed. What else you need? we are given very limited time and brain. you can not choose anything what you like in your life at all. your body, your health, and your life never belongs to you. never...

Peace!
Except for Judaism and Catholic Christianity, all the other religions of the world are man made.
The Catholic Church was founded by Jesus Christ, the second person in the Holy Trinity, and continued by his apostles. This Church is "the Church of the living God, which is the pillar and foundation of truth" (1 Timothy 3,15).
God bless

All religions are made by men kind, Jesus, Buddha, Moses, etc didn't call for a certain religion, their followers named them. But that doesn't means that there isn't somebody out there who's watching. I believe in Jesus, for example, but I don't believe in no man who's like me.
SORRY, BUT YES IS THE SAME THING WITH KORAN (QURAM)

All religions are from the One True God.
The true Religion was originated by the Messenger of God Who revealed a Holy Book; at this time of human maturity, Baha'u'llah revealed more than one hundred Holy Books.

All religions are created by man. The religious institutions of the world plunder billions of dollars yearly from the masses.

There are spiritual beings among us - angels and fallen angels. Angels do God's work among us. Fallen angels are rebellion against God and seek to undermine God. There's a lot of theological thought that many religions are actually inpired supernaturally - by fallen angels, or demons. Voodoo is an example - those voodoo priests can summon demons and exhibit real supernatural powers. But those demon-inspired religions are leading people away from God.

All religions without exception are made by man (by men to be more specific).
