Are you religious?
Five responses are certain: YES, NO, FUCK YOU ,I don’t know & not Interested.
I have no intention of promoting any sect of religion nor have I any intention of creating another Scientology. I am simply a flaneur wondering about minding my business. Religion just happens to be an avenue around the corner. So I got curious.

There is no central authority claiming a rigid history of how one culture influenced the other and where it all began.
We are fed a story of how all humans suddenly originated in african continent and dispersed throughout the rest of the world. Humans began to settle in different part of different continent and started creating there own language, food, religion, customs and traditions.
I do not know the answer to this puzzle. But every human I interact with has a resembles of the past. Their ancestors survived long enough to create a lineage to produce a story.
