Christine the reason for similarity in religion is because it has evolved over eons with each paradigm formed from thoughts that seemed to be more understandable than in its previous one.

Most of the bible religions were a take-off of prior religions and the bible was created and the original Catholic church was by the Roman rule and was used to change religious views of jews who were raising hell about taxes and slavery. Just look at the new testament for example. Render unto Ceasar, slaves obey your master, etc. The Jews didn't buy it so it was given to the gentiles and forced on them by the sword. Just follow it and you will find Christianity grew only in the Roman empire for hundreds of years.

Natures laws learned and followed will create the heaven in this life and not the one after death. Failure to follow them will bring you hell on this time around. Been there - done that. 75 years of experience has proved them both.
