Sry but this is what I really believe in.
All religions are man-made. Including yours... How difficult is that to understand?
Al Kaid!! do you really think God 'revealed himself' to the Prophet(PBUH)?? All religions created followed the trend that existed at that time.
Hinduism is pretty old. So polytheism was the trend then. When younger religions came about people then thought that may be a single God would be better to attribute power.
May be the driving factor is that they recoognized that the main point of religion is assurance of fairness and security for an individual. This in the context of bringing humans under a proper system of life.
In that sense Buddhism must be the perfect religion in that it
mentions this motive as Dharma explicitly.
Most other religions hide this motive and in this sense they are all man made.
Gita also mentions this explicitly in that it says man should follow his Dharma.
So what I think is appropriate for today is to acknowledge that all religions were created to bring order into humans. So except for rituals and assurance we get from praying, I say, don't care about religion.
THis is the truth!! There is no Allah!! The prophet(PBUH) probably never saw Allah. There probably was no Ram at all. Probably Christ never walked on water.
All religions are meant for bringing order.
And most all were used to establish dominance whether political or spiritual. I nned not tell how much blood was spilled for spread off Christianity and Islam. Judaism did the same thing when the populations there were still tribal. Hinduism may seem to have no such period but may be there was one in history so old that people could not record it.
Do you still think it matters if there is a single deity or many in a religion?
So get this point and forget everything about being better than others.
This is the fact: If you knew the true answer, you would have been a better person.
And who knows? may be you could have convinced your brothers to stop killing people in the name of religion.

Lol @ "ok that's it".
I cannot prove God, but I can prove a creator. Through science.
Theory of evolution has failed since evolution does not explain things at the cellular levels.
Consider the example of the The bacterial flagellum. The flagellum cells have a small tail like structure that rotates with the use of a motor.
Now Natural Selection methodology states that nothing can exist without it having a purpose and anything without a purpose would die off at the next evolutionary stage.
Imagine if the bacteria first developed the tail and then the motor to use it. The tail would be useless, in fact a burden on the cell and should be lost in the next stage.
Imgaine if the bacteria first developed the motor and then the tail. Then motor would run and use up valuable resources of the cell and not give any benefit and would be lost in the next evolutionary stage.
This means both the tail and the motor all came together. This complex design suggests, the bacteria flagellum was designed and not evolved.
Hence there being a creator. You want to call it God, Allah, Aliens, thats up to you and a matter of faith. But the existence of a creator is a matter of science.
