    I've suggested , (and others have too), that you change your posting style. Just make one point at a time, then at least it will get read. I too only read the first few lines, although I'm pretty well versed in the actions of hindus.
    I read the entire OP and I understood it. He is attempting to discredit the Judeo/Christian foundation. It's his typical tripe.

    We are not talking about old.

    We are talking about original and the eternal.

    False religion will not be eternal and will not be original. (it will be a fabrication of recent times)

    I am having a lot of trouble this week with people not switching on their brains before they comment.

    Is it contagious.
    The problem is with the title you gave your post.

    If its new.....then its false.

    This implies,

    If its old.....then its True.

    These people of Papua New Guinea use a base 15 counting system.
    which is a superior system we use today in modern computers, we call it the hexadecimal.

    but the earliest form of all was the tally marks system, which was simply etching lines on bone or other object.

    the ancient sumerians had the very first value based number system and used base-60 (yick!).

    the base-10 system was likely invented by the egyptians.

    Yeah, I pretty much guessed it. After all, he's written several similar posts.

    There must be something to christianity or else it wouldn't have such a big following in so many different lands.

    I try to take the good I find from ALL religions and leave the rest behind. It works me.

    It doesn't make me a christian or anything else , really, but I'm going with "hindu" for the sake of brevity and some clarity as to my religious views,(rather than the "nothing" that I was calling myself before that)

    The numerical system we have is as old as man himself and works perfectly and is accepted by all people.

    .
    Two statements.

    Both false.

    Both you believed to be true (else you would be a liar)

    Perhaps some other statements you make are false?

    Perhaps some other beliefs you hold true are also false?

    Food for thought?

    When people completely and deliberately divert from the essence of the thread and decide to have a discussion about the analogy instead.................they are dishonest and are only creating straw-man complaints to purposely create conflict.

    The thread is about new/religion verses eternal/religion and has nothing to do with mathematics.

    If you have believed the thread is about mathematics then you are a fool

    And this is crystal clear.

    Your OP was basically an analogy. This analogy has failed. It disintegrated as soon as people started to scrutinize it. Whatever point you sought to make has failed with it, of course. Perhaps you should rephrase what you are trying to say, choose a better analogy - assuming you use an analogy at all - and try again.

    Your 'logic' and 'reasoning' are so utterly retarded that they make a truly retarded person look like a genius.

    If there was a God they would've done us a favour and involuntarily euthanized you.

    unless the vedas are about animal worship, it's a new religion compared to the history of humanity. it's only a few thousand years old while animal religions are tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years old.

    your theory is crushed. your analogies are false.

    I agree that the religion associated with the vedas can not be older than
    the flood of Noah's day and that is only a few thousand years ago. But
    the belief in the God of Noah dates back before the flood.

    there is no record of abraham's god existing before abraham invented it.

    I think the Holy Bible is a pretty good record or have you forgot about it.

    the holy bible didn't come into existence until long after the death of the alleged abraham character.
