I like the idea but would like to so you another, if I can. There is a story in the bible that I think explains it but people have not made the connection. The Tower of Babel is a tower in a city that people tried to build up to haven. God saw this and realized that if they did not speak the same language they could not make this happen. So he made them all speak a different language and scattered them across the world. Now this is where my theory comes in. When he he changed there language would he not give himself a new name in each of them languages? All these religions are the same but are just called something different by others.

  • You have an incredibly interesting point, but the only problem is that the other religions have different religious books with completely different teachings and beliefs. It's very possible that he could have created other names, but ultimately no matter the language, it all would have translated to "God", in which many cases it does. But I don't think that story works. Here is something rather compelling and very enlightening to read incase you wanted further information and commentary on the topic you brought up. http://hermeneutics.stackexchange.com/questions/5927/why-does-god-scatter-the-people-in-genesis-11
