Because the spread of religion went hand in hand with the development of civilisation and that area has had farming/city culture longer than most.

They didnt, those are just the ones that survive today. Many religions lasted longer and had more followers but the Romans killed off most of them by force to create and support the catholic church.

Because the American Indian tepee was too small to hold a congregation of significant size.

The white man's mega-church was vastly superior.

Human history is way older than ME or India or Mayan or any thing that's recorded in the history books. Did you think Atlantis is a myth?

Not necessarily. I think more along
the lines that this is where history was
buried/veiled. History is propaganda, for
the most-part.

But I think the spokes lined up there and
connect with most the others. The most
coveted war booty is gold and knowledge.
Like with Alexander, who never had a library
until conquering Asher, and then suddenly
he had the biggest one ever until Banipol
kicked his assyria.

I doubt the library of Asher has ever been
fully deciphered.

OK, please give an example of a religion which did NOT originate in the Middle East or in India, which was killed off by the Romans to create and support the Catholic Church, and which, according to you, would otherwise have become a World Religion.

Exactly. It was those civilizations which had a civilizing influence - Judaism, Christianity, Islam - mainly to the West; and Buddhism, mainly to the East.

One which tptb don't even want you to acknowledge.

The few Anunnaki "Gods" were unable to control the exploding human population after the flood (melting from the ice age). The Anunnaki provided the idea of "Religion" as a means for Humans to manage themselves. Humans have expanded the original idea by continuously inventing new variations on the theme. Also, the Anunnaki enjoy being worshiped. (My researched opinion).

That's why religion doesn't partain to you if you're white. People need to realize this. It's for the brownies.

So i wonder, what would happen if the Roman Empire hadnt embrassed Christianity.
I quote
"AD 313, the Emperor Constantine made Christianity legal and for the first time, they were allowed to openly worship. Churches were quickly built not just in Rome but throughout the empire. In AD 391, the worship of other gods was made illegal."

So in 78 years we have Christianity the formal (and only) religion of the whole empire. Also to mention that the Roman Empire split in 395 AD, that is 4 years later.

The longer "religion" we know of i think it is animism. Followed by the ancestors worship they combined the two in time and the first polytheistic religions emerged.
