Pete mate,

I know we came out of the Rift (maybe) but we grew up in the Indus (probably).

The end of the last ice age (the flood) dispersed aquired knowledge.

Look at ancient myths and legends.( Atlantis!)

Scattered refugees.From all over the world.Their legends are fairly consistant.

But it's still all about social status and control.A story. Lies to children.

And is a cartouche two crocodiles?

Sorry if this is incoherrent.Damping bad news with vodka.

A cartouche is group of hieroglyphics that signifies a royal (usually) name. You can get a copy of your own from :- http://hieroglyphs.net/000501/html/000-042.html
Always a bit of fun..
I suspect that all faiths have links, because as long as mankind has existed we have had religions of some sort and we all have a similar origin.
Some has been for political status but I suspect not all.

I could trawl amongst my books and give you chapter and verse

but it's 0300 and I'm fairly well oiled and it would take me past the weekend

so I'll try and keep it brief.

If you look at the panoply of gods of ancient cultures they are actually all the same

but with different names

no culture existed in isolation

The one change that occured in Egypt was the end of pyramid building

Pyramids are stars, a connection to heaven. They were recreating heaven on earth.

This ended after a 20 year drought and religion changed because the gods let everyone down.

Shiva is worshipped in parts of India as a phallus bathed in milk!

I think the Indus valley is probably the origin of earthly civilisation.

Developing during the last ice age if not before (yep,12,000 years ago)

Like I said elsewhere, the Heavenly father impregnating the Earthly mother. (with meteorite sperm)

Original religion is all about sex, bonking, deities getting their leg over.

Have you seen the frescoes on the hindu temples?

The original blue movie.

Some ancient Greek temples (and other contempory cultures also)would be classed today as

brothels.

The hypocritical Romans created the temple of Vesta in response to this.
