Questions about Creation Myths.

I have many questions about creation myths and why some cultures believe in what they believe in.

1. I have always wondered where the creation myths started? Who wrote them and what evidence at the time was obtained to convince the masses that what they held was the truth.

2. I have always wondered why creation and religions go on faith. I have wondered why the Gods haven't made their existence quite clear. If they did they could have complete compliance and affection. I am sure there's a reason for the mystery but it is something I've always wondered about.

3. I have also wondered why cultures get so hostile towards each other when another side believes there beliefs and myths and has no room or toleration for other viewpoints. Why can't we all believe in our own truths and not kill each other?

  2. I liked the point you made in #3. I think it your right as a human being to believe anything you wish. I may not agree with your belief system, and I may think you are wrong, but I don't believe anyone should be persecuted for what they believe.
