If religious leaders of today's major religions have been misleading us and not disclosing their dependence on other ancient spiritual wisdom to create their religions systoms, what shall we do?

What if our Christian doctrines and concepts have been stolen and copied from the Egyptians; what shall we do? Is that not deceptive?

Most are misleading people and they do it knowingly. I really think that most religious leaders just want your money so they can have an easy life. Sorry to say, i see lots of religious leaders just raking in the money, most of which are missionaries...one guy i know pockets 20 thousand dollars a month...that is just one that i know.

I keep telling my wife "we are in the wrong racket" she just smiles at me :)

The only religious leader you need is Jesus Christ and the Holy Bible, if you have decided to be a Christian. If not, go with the form of instructional material that teaches the religion you prefer to follow.

Men often fall prisoner to their personal beliefs, instead of the religion beliefs when they are the leaders of that particular belief.

They grab this and that and call it part of the religion, especially if it gives them a controlling upper-hand. Talk to your Spiritual Entity and let them lead you in the proper path.

As far as anything Christian being derived from anything Egyptian - Joseph was mummified when carried by Moses and his people from out of bondage in Egypt to the Promised Land. That's the only Egyptian/Christian influence I know about and I've been a Christian for a very very long time.

Certainly religious practices and beliefs sometimes overlap and that is likely because every religion has some elements of truth. However, for the same reason you guessing the right answer on a multiple choice question doesn't make you Einstein, that overlap doesn't put all religions on equal standing.

So, it is possible that you might find some similarities between ancient pagan practices and current Christian beliefs. But, just like a car having doors like an airplane will do nothing to make it fly, that similarity doesn't make them the same.

The Bible has no fraud in it and no deception. there are though plenty of Christians who are decieved by sin and false doctrine. The Bible is absolute truth. Judaism and Christianity are the only two true religions, Both are based on the word of God. The Bible. ( of course Judaism does not hold the New Testament as their book.... yet) All other world religions are false. They may have some good moral teachings but they are based on a lie and will not lead to eternal life. Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life. God bless .....Cap'n Arlo

There is alot of major religions that are fraudulantly decieving us. I wont mention any names, but I will give some examples I obviously will not have to state which... The Bible states in Matthew 6:7, not to include ourselves in repititious prayer, like the heathen do. For he is our God and he knows what we need..."Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, Blessed it art though among thy womb"...x's 500 x's... (2) Ever visited a church that you dip your finger in some water and bless yourself? Ever notice you might be dipping into shell? A coptic shell is what it is called. This is of pagan decent. Any engraven images? How about angels?The bible states never to make anything that is to be or to symbolize an angelic being... Fish, ever notice that one funny pointed hat that one man wears? I guess if you turned him sideways it would be a fish, but of course we only see mainly the front view, not to question maybe? How about this one, since you got yourself a computer why not look up the same man I'm speaking of, and put his name in and then put /his crooked cross pictures... Notice the way the crucifix curves inward on every end? Look into it, this is of pagan worship.....That is just to speak of one religion that is being very deceptive. It is one that is very obvious if just given a second look. Now this goes for more that one religion... The bible states that the lord worked six long days, and on the seventh day he rested. He told us to keep this day Holy. Not for you, your brethren, your servants or even your cattle to work, but to rest on this day, the seventh day, Saturday. How many of us believe that the sabbath is Sunday? Is that deception?....Of course it is... But lets just say, it is most religions' Sunday. Okay how many of those Sunday Sabbath believing religions do nothing but worship and rest on their Sabbath? Do remember God said not to even have your cattle work. He meant "no kind of work.".... No washing clothes, grocery shopping,( because it is a task) washing dishes. Of course you all give up just the simple little things on your Sabbath right? That is how the lord kept his Holy and sanctified it right? Right. . I must say there is alot of misguiding when it come to our religious leaders... I do hope I helped. If needed you can contact me.

It can very difficult to tell if a spiritual leader is a wolf in sheep's clothing - a false prophet. You should check what the leader says and does against Scripture and seek the views of another Christian whose opinion you respect and believe is sound. Finding one can be another difficult job - someone not in your own church is preferable. In addition pray for discernment - confirmation of the answer will arise somewhere, somehow.

A little ( and I do mean a little) research will overthrow this concept.
I mean, have you actually compared the ancient Egyptian religion with true Christianity?
Not to be rude, but I mean, Christianity, not the apostate form of the name with it's plural godhead, and it's eternal torment in hell, but pure, unadulterated Christianity.

I would like to know how it is that anyone can claim a parallel between ancient Egyptian religions and Christianity.

i'm uncertain what form of factor you're attempting to make. All you're offering right it is data that some human beings have faith evolution is fake without making any form of arguments of your individual. The arguments on those particular web pages factor quite often to unwell-examined or fraudulent specimens chosen via scientists who have been probable eager to submit for investment and/or attractiveness. not one of the arguments you have indexed attempt to undermine the easy genetic mechanisms at the back of evolution, nor do they attempt to describe why the Earth because it rather is stated is so against a rote creationist account. the terrific any creationist could desire to wish to make a case for is intelligently-sped up evolution or periodic bouts of creation, yet seeing as to how maximum "smart layout" advocates are rather pushing Jesus and a literal, present day-day radical Protestant interpretation of Genesis, we the two understand this shouldn't happen.

I think that most religious leaders really believe in the mythology they preach. As for answering prayers, Give a monkey a typewriter and sooner or later it will type a word.

All modern religious beliefs are rather complex and draw from other social and cultural systems of the past.

Christianity, for example, was strongly influenced by earlier Pagan myths. Check out the origins of Easter and the resurrection stories of other Greek gods, including Dionysus.
