More to the point, if god is omnipotent and jealous then it wouldn't have allowed alternative religions to develop in the first place. I take the existence of all these religions as evidence of the non-existence of god.

God did not make religion. God is an alive being who wants to commune with us. religion is the result of people who love God gathering for support and fellowship. from there they made bylaws that trickle into the churches today. Church is instituted by God, but not religion. Religion is a set of rules - God is about relationships with people. and God allows religions that do not promote that relationship, because, He doesn't want to force anyone into believing in Him. that would contradict his loving nature. He lets people do what they want, but has always maintained that there are consequences for every action. Good or bad, there will always be a reaction for every action.

How do you hide a flashlight? Surround it with several hundred light bulbs.
Originally there was just one worship. Satan is responsible for confusing the matter with so-called christian religions that do not follow the Bible and other religions based on other books and practices. All of them are designed to do one thing, mislead as many people as possible from the true God who created all things.

God did no longer create diverse religions, he created those with loose will, which then on had the loose will to start up diverse religions. human beings did it... nonetheless do EDIT for the yank guy up suitable " God's reasoning at the back of having many faiths rather of basically one? user-friendly. diverse human beings have diverse cultures. God replaced his sort to greater helpful wholesome the cultural needs of whomever he looked as though it may." Im locate this argument lacking in good judgment slightly. I do see the place you're coming from, even nevertheless to assert that God became at the back of each and each faith looks slightly a good distance fetched. I recommend in spite of everything, how would desire to all of them be suitable? One says jesus is the only way, yet another says jesus became purely a prophet and Islam is the only way.. and so forth. I recommend i think that the clarification they have a similar underlying morals is by using the fact in line with danger they have branched off one yet another.. picked and chosen what they enjoyed or did no longer like. there is no way they might all be suited. Why could God demonstrate himself to diverse cultures with diverse religions which completely contradict one yet another?? He wouldnt it is senseless.

You would think this god would be intelligent enough to write a book that everyone would interpet the same way. That to me would show the book is inspired
I guess he's not that smart - or doesn't care enough to save everyone

perhaps he did. perhaps people chose to go another path. hypothetical questions can only be looked at and not reasoned with
