History of Religion
|
Prior to the 1st century CE over 2,800 gods have been invented around the world and were attributed to various religions. These gods were created to explain various aspects of life and nature that have yet to be explained through natural and scientific means. Yahweh (the god of the Christian Bible) and Jesus Christ are just two mere specs in the history of worshiped gods. As knowledge of our surroundings has progressed gods stopped being created as alternate explanations, also less and less of these gods continued to be worshiped or believed in.
