Religious prophecy could be easily predicted from obvious outcomes. With plenty of religions being around there's bound to be plenty of conflicted beliefs. And with these extremly strong religious hold over the masses, there's always going to be people who believe their religion is right and others are wrong. And with this passion that exceeds this life and influences the oppinion of who they believe God is. Religious isolation is neccecery to keep their minds from straying. There's plenty of religions who hold the same principals of christianity, but have a different prophet. Basically it's like if another person said jesus's gospel than it would be wrong. Because if that wasn't true there wouldnt be a need for religious war. In addition to the religious isolation, the bible wrote warnings of a "false" prophet and preaches damnation for anyone who doesn't follow jesus. THIS forces others to feel the same way about theirs. Even the laws of our life, the laws of our government, the morality we hold as people roots back to religion. But the existance of religion is bitter sweet. BEcause we as human beings are extremly intellegent and powerful. If we held onto our indivisual beliefs, then there's always going to be constant war. But at the same time, classifying these beliefs as a religion and not as a philosophy for human serenity, causes all this POSSIBLY unneccecary bullshit.
