Is there a problem with having choice in religion?

Yes, this is the most important decision of the life for any human being to choose the right religion. Because life after death depends on it. And life after death will last forever. It will never be end. _______________ It is not a problem. The problem is that there IS a choice from among so many alternatives. What is that saying about the nature of the world and about whether or not there is a deity? Most religions are systems where some individual or elite group takes control of the general population.

How was religion changed over the years?

Religion was originally made by men with power. Smart men who could read and could preach to those who were ignorant. Back when religion was created the only ones who could read were the ones who wrote the bible. Religion has caused many wars and the most death to mankind. Over thousands of years it gave people different views which lead to people believing in different things. It's basically a fabricated story to give people hope, to control, and ease the fear of death. Still to this day religion is causing wars and death in the name of different gods. Organized religion is going to be the fate of humanity.
