all major religions have common origin in mesopotamia
by inkypinky on Jul 01, 2007 08:28 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

around 7000 BC when civilzation first started and spread east & west.

yahweh/allah - (god of jews, christians and muslims) - is ONE

brahman - (god of hindus, buddhists) - is ONE

many holy men & prophets have interpreted in various ways resulting in different religions existing today.

Hey brother. That eurocentric theory will give way to lots of new scientific findings. Here's one example:

judaism, christianity, islam are not european religions - originated in mesopotamia (now iraq-iran) asia where the prophet abraham lived.

similarly hinduism origins is also from iran-iraq region, very near to indus-saraswati and carried into india by migrants where it got mixed with harappan religions.

Dear inkypinky,

I should better say 'the theory of european colonials and anti India regiments' thanks. The theory that Vedas (or Hinduism) came from outside India is called Aryan Invasion theory. This theory now can not stand the new hard evidents. Have you check above link I provided? Mesopotamia is much younger civilization than India.

Here's another:

Also:

The Vedas is originated in mother India itself since ancient time. This is the latest development of scientific studies.

i don't mean vedas were brought in from outside per se, but the vedas is a combination of religious ideas brought in by migrants from mesopotamia with the harappan religions indigenous to the indus-saraswati region.

there is no need to call it an invasion, but a gradual migration would be a better term. the original sanksrit term "aryan" refers to iran.

"It is derived from the Sanskrit and Avestan term %u0101rya-, the extended form ary%u0101na-, ari- and/or arya- of which the word Iran is a cognate."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan

religions very similar to hinduism was practised in iraq-iran regions till it was overrun by islamic invasion from arabia.

the various manifestaions of the ONE is the dispute, Christians say the ONE can become a Trinity, while Hindus says the ONE can become a Trinity and further 333 million, while Jews and Muslims say the ONE remains a ONE.

however it is not worth fighting about as god does not want nor require any worship, no other animals except humans worship god.....which shows that humans are abnormal.

if you want to know which is the only pure ONE that existed and gave rise to the Universe, google about the PRIMORDIAL SINGULARITY.
