If you believe one is made up, wouldn't they all be by nature of logic?

Keeping in mind the Christian religion came last of the three... so it has a little bit less clout.

before technology and modern science, people needed a way to explain natural phenomena such as lightning, rain, volcanoes etc. this was usually done by personifying the phenomena as a diety.
there is not much difference between them except that the christian god is considerably more bloodthirsty and vindictive. christians too seem to be unable to accept anything outside their own sphere.

That's a false logical conclusion. Many cultures have their specific gods and they can also believe that other cultures have their own gods. The God of the Jews and the Christians is singular (unlike most pagan cultures that have multiple gods). In addition, both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible addres the falsity of the Egyptian and Greek gods as well as the gods of other cultures. I've heard that in modern India that many people don't have a problem with adding the Christian God to their list of gods.

I'm not sure where you learn ed your logic from. Allow me to apply that to a different scenario to show it's inadequacy.If you worked in a store and in your store a couple of people walked in and tried to pass fake money would your logic dictate that since two people passed fake bills that by the law of the nature of logic they must all be fake? Of course not you may be more attentive to the possiblity of fakes but yu would also consider that there most likely could be real money floating around as well.The fact that some may be older by earthly standards is irrelevant. This insinuates that the newer must copy. In the real world there are many similarities in beliefs and inventions that are merely incidental. Consider the number of inventions that were being worked on by a few different people at the same time. Could one have copied the other. That is a possiblity but so is the possibility that they arose independantly of each other. Similarites don't always mean plagerism.

Some Egyptian God myths have made their way into Christianity. There is no real difference between any of them except the names.

The Greek god is a pervert and likes multiple women in the temple, doing stuff I'm not at liberty to discuss.
The Egyptian god likes to have lots of slaves around, and he likes a lot of magic and strange effects in the temple.
The Christian god is really disgusted, and he likes the smell of burning flesh, he can't wait until he gets a few billion souls burning in hell.

Greek God, is where the immediate leader is God and acted as if one.
Egyptian God, proclaimed the Pharaoah as one by their Priests but doesn't care as they lived as they are disciplined as to be as they have as their rank implies.
Christian God, is for the existing leader in the present form of leadership.
Somebody called them, political development, that serves unto one unto another, which means by nature and by logic where it is logically natural. But if you need to know more about God, seek Jesus for His Glorifications of God.

Different fairy tales based off of the region they were created from and whoever got around to making up a story to explain the so called unexplainable first. Oh, yeah, and the Christian god was forced onto thousands and thousands of people who were given the choice of dying or converting, that kinda helps with the recruitment.

The only difference is that a shitload of people believe in the third of the false dieties.
They're all fake, but people are still killing and hating because of what the Christian god supposedly said.

the difference is that the Greek Gods were made up 5000 years ago, while the Christian God was made up 2000 years ago. Christian God is newer technology, therefore, everyone buys into it.

to the greeks and egyptians, there were many diff. gods for diff. aspects of life. to the christians, there is only one true god. also to the christians, you can have a personal relationship with that one god. if you are interested in this kind of stuff, I urge you to persue it. try reading the book Jesusfreaks, its about a lot of people who were tortured and killed because they loved their God more than life itself. its a cool book.
