[QUOTE]Originally posted by homeylu: [QB] Since we're talking about the Bible,(Old Testament-which I belive the Torah and Quran both include) has anyone ever studied it to compare how closely its related to a lot of Ancient Egyptian practices and religions and how all of these religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) has Ancient Egyptian origins? I remember reading the Histories by Herodotuss and some of the relgious practices he mentions of the Egyptians, I can see in all three of those religions. i.e. Herodotus quotes of the Egyptians "They are religious to excess, far beyond any other race of men" [list] [*]They practiced circumcision [*]They practiced embalming [*]The pig is regarded as a uncean animal [*]The priest wash before entering the temple [*]They make animal sacrifices [*]They had the first trinity "known"(Isis,Horus,Osiris) [*]The first "known" Madonna (Isis,Horus) [*]The male animals were used for sacrifice (later practiced by the Hebrews) [*]They did not converse with women in sacred places [/list] These are just the ones I know about, I'm not every familiar with the practices of the world third largest religion-Hinduism, and if any of their practices are similar to the AE. Could the Hebrews have really been a religious sect of Egypt, led by their General Moses, as Sigmund Freud has suggested? I'm curious to what others think. [/QB][/QUOTE]
