Even an Atheist will tell you that the Hebrew People have produced some of the greatest Scientific, Philosophical and Artistic minds in the history of mankind. Their contributions are immeasurable in those areas. Not enough room in here to list. Yes, I am an Atheist but we should give credit where it is due and they certainly deserve it.

There are no traces of ancient Hindu temples north of Nepal or south of Indonesia. The most eastern ancient Hindu temple is in Mỹ Sơn in Vietnam. There are no traces of ancient Hindu temples west of Afghanistan. There is no evidence that Hinduism ever spread outside southeast Asia during ancient times. There is very little similarity between Hinduism and the other religions of the ancient world. It is true that Islam and Buddhism have replaced Hinduism in large parts of southeast Asia. Nowadays, Hinduism has spread to many parts of the world, largely because the British and Dutch needed Indian or Indonesian workers in other parts of their empires during the 19th and early 20th century.

Monotheism, and the stories that accompany the belief in One all powerful God.
The Torah (Old Testament) stories of Abraham and his family, and of Moses, told the world to trust God with all our hearts, and though things might be overwhelmingly difficult at times, God would reward us and our descendants for our loyalty.
