Would you entertain the possibility that some of the structure and nature of
judeo-christianity may be from the rg veda via zoroaster with a smatter of
Babylonian religion? I'm trying to understand your metaphor. Are you saying
religions evolve in isolation and are best not examined for cross influences?
"sword cuts both ways" - please clarify... what analyses are appropriate?
