The God of the Bible is God over the whole Earth—Jew and Gentile, Christian and pagan, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and atheist. He created the world and everything in it, and all of man’s history traces back to that singular event. Christians assert this as an absolute truth, though not everyone agrees.

atheists have long struggled to solve the problem of the origin of religion, specifically of monotheism—the belief that God is One. According to David Barrett’s World Christian Encyclopedia, approximately 85 percent of the world’s population believes in some sort of god (of the remaining 15 percent who are atheists and agnostics, 14 percent reside in communist countries), and 53 percent of the world’s population is monotheistic, claiming to derive their faith from Abraham (Christians, Jews, and Muslims)48. Such a ubiquitous belief demands an explanation, yet evolutionists are at a loss to explicate the origin of this pervasive phenomenon.

As long as there has been religion, there have been those who have attempted to explain its origin naturalistically. The rise of monotheistic religion generally has been described as an evolution, an outgrowth, of some more primitive religious belief that parallels the evolution of man. This theory was discussed most thoroughly in the years directly after Darwin published Origin of Species and Descent of Man, but it has been a source of controversy since at least the second century. The Roman philosopher Celsus, who was rabidly anti-Christian, set out to prove that the monotheism of the Jews began as pagan polytheism. "Those herdsmen and shepherds who followed Moses as their leader, had their minds deluded by vulgar deceits, and so supposed that there was one God" (as quoted in Origen, 1972, p. 405). Erasmus, writing during the Reformation, suggested that many heathen customs had been adopted by the Roman Catholic Church. David Hume, in Natural History of Religion (1757), and Voltaire’s Essay (1780), similarly denied revelation a place in the history of religion. It was not until the nineteenth century and the arrival of the German rationalists that the theory reached its full-grown proportions. Max Müller, orientalist and philologist at Oxford, was chief among them, with his theory that religion originated with "a henotheistic Nature Worship, degenerated into Polytheism, sank into Fetishism, and then rose in some cases to new forms of Pantheism or Theism" (Zwemer, 1945, p. 33). Tylor, a colleague of Müller’s at Oxford, rejected this, and claimed that animism, the worship of spirit beings, was the well-spring from which all other religion flowed; Herbert Spencer, the English sociologist and close friend of Charles Darwin, readily accepted this evolutionary hypothesis in his Principles of Sociology (1877). Others thought totemism (the belief that there existed a mythical relationship between man and certain plants or animal), to be the original source of religious beliefs. Similar theories were submitted, though the aforementioned were the most popular.

Did you know the bible was plagiarized?
so christians, your "son of god" and the bible is all truthful. how do you explain the similarities with other older pagan religions from before the writing of the bible.check out the similarities between jesus christ and the egyptian sun god "horus"
HORUS -Ancient Egypt-3000 bc
born- Dec 25 to a virgin (Isis mary)
his birth was accompanied by a star in the east, and was worshiped by three kings
at 30 he was baptized, could heal the sick and walk on water.
there are other similarities, which where inscribed 3500 years ago and found in luxor, egypt, which also has the virgin birth. this also follows other gods in terms of a birth sequence, including:
attis -greece 1200bc
Krishna - India 900 bc
dionysis - greece 500 bc
mithra -persia 500 bc
so does this mean that god does not exist as it is all a blatant copy form previous "sun gods" and what makes god and jesus any different from the other gods named?, does this show that christianity with all its pagan ritual is nothing more than a stolen myth, passed down from the ancient egyptians??

@Daiivid,
All I ever asked you to do is to back-up the things you say. This blog is about the God of the Bible. The God of the Bible is the Jewish people views of how they see God, right. Does this mean that I am to view God as they do? Does this mean that I am to have their Jewish Prophet Jesus as well?
Why it is that everything for you got to be Jewish while you are professing all this Blackness about yourself?

on subject, NO the 'god' of bibble, is not for the Muslim, Hindu ,Christian, Buddhist, atheist --- Jew or Gentile --- only for the pagan
i do believe that ALL histories that are of the MODERN era2012; would CONCLUDE that Monotheism is a product of The Creator of Adaam(as) for His Family; and passed down thru Our Great Judaic Prophets and Words
if we can agree on that ---- can we also agree with Our Semitic Brothers that?:
NO jew - 0- 2012AD---- believed/believes paganChristian kingJames euroCentric 'religion'
NO jew - 0-2012AD-----believed/believes a man named jesus DIED on a Cross
NO jew - 0-2012AD----believed/believes romanJesus is of ANY value in their Lives......
NO jew - 0-2012AD----READS kingJamesVersion of EVENTS in MONOTHEISM
and NO jew - 0-2012AD----believed/believes there are 'blackie/whitie'Jews.......
BUT --- the jews in Israel 2012 are Deporting those kingJames 'FRAUD Monotheists'
at least READ your silly pastes harryBlagPrincesjohnson
learn something, sometime and SMASH the oldeNegro Stereotypes
