From the author: In this case I do not consider it necessary for someone to represent me, to describe any of my merits. They do not matter. The important thing is the reason this book was written, what questions it answers. Here are the main ones:

Which religion or which groups of related religions are most consistent with the truth? What unites followers of all religions? What is the complete picture of existing and potentially possible religions? Is there life after death? What options for a future afterlife may be true, and which are a clear delusion? What is the most convincing evidence of god’s existence? Is there eternal punishment? A number of new potential religions are proposed. A new religion, Karmaism, is proposed and substantiated, and on its basis - the United Religion that unites all humanistic religions, as well as the Punishism religion, which speak of the inevitable punishment for violations of moral norms. An explanation is given for what is considered bad behavior, not only in life, but also in politics, using the examples of the situations in America and Israel. A United Philosophy is also proposed. A complete table of all existing and potentially possible humanistic religions is provided. It is shown which of them can most likely correspond to the truth, and which practically have no serious grounds for this. Based on the analysis of the Gospels, a solution to the mission of Jesus Christ is proposed and a rationale is given for the new unifying religions of New Judaism, Common Judaism, Bibleism, Newarism and Prophetism; including those religions which consider it necessary to fulfill the covenants of God set forth in the Torah that apply to all people, and not only to the Jews: this is also Bibleism, Newarism, New Judaism and Prophetism, and also Injudaism. The author analyzes the grounds for belief in life after death from the point of view of the available facts and existing religious ideas on this topic. The ones selected are those which have the greatest chances to correspond with the truth.

Jesus

Religion still plays a very large role in our world. And there are not so few religions. Each of them claims that only it is right, that only it owns the truth. I would like to understand which of them are clearly false, and which have a chance to correspond to the truth. Whatever I may personally believe, I believe that this is extremely important for the fate of the world. After all, religions do not exist by themselves, they largely determine the mentality of this or that nation and its attitude towards other nations. I would like faith not to be blind, to be chosen not only by feelings or by belonging to a particular nation, but also by reason, rejecting what common sense rebels against, i.e., clearly false religions.

First of all, I appeal to those who believe in the One God - the Creator. The overwhelming majority of believers belong to them. In history, not so many manifestations of God are known to people. And all these were appearances to individual people – to the prophets, through whom He transmitted information to the people of the Earth. These were individual meetings, without witnesses, vision meetings, there was no one to certify them. The manifestation of God at once to many people, to the entire Jewish people, which took place at Mount Sinai during the wanderings of the Jews in the Sinai desert after leaving Egypt, is the only and completely unique case in history. Of course, no one saw the Almighty with their own eyes, it is possible that this is completely impossible. But the clear signs of His appearance, about which He warned the people in advance through Moses (Moshe) - smoke, fire, trembling of the mountain, thunder, and lightning - were seen by everyone. This is how it is described in the Torah:

"And God said, addressing Moshe: ‘Here I am coming to you in a thick cloud, so that the people will hear how I will speak with you, and they will also believe in you forever ... Go to the people and sanctify it today and tomorrow, let them wash their clothes to be ready for the third day, for on the third day God will descend in front of all the people on Mount Sinai.’

‘And it was - on the third day, when morning came, thunder thundered, and lightning flashed, and a thick cloud hid the mountain, and the shofar sounded very loudly, and all the people who were in the camp shuddered, and Moses led the people out of the camp to meet the Almighty and stood at the foot of the mountain.’

And Mount Sinai was all smoking because God descended on it in fire, and the smoke from it ascended like smoke from a furnace, and the whole mountain shook violently ... And the All-Mighty spoke all these words, saying:

‘I am God, your Almighty, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. May you have no other gods besides Me.

Do not make yourself a statue and any image ... Do not worship them and do not serve them ...

Do not say the name of God, your Almighty, in vain ...

Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy. Work six days and do all your work, and the seventh day, Saturday, to God your Almighty: do not do any work, neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your servant, nor your cattle ... In six days God created heaven and earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore God blessed and sanctified the sabbath day.

Honor your father and your mother, so that your days on the Earth, which God, your Almighty, gives you, may be prolonged.

Do not kill.

Do not commit adultery.

Do not steal.

Do not speak false testimony of your neighbor.

Do not covet your neighbor’s house; do not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his servant, nor his bull, nor his donkey, and nothing that is with your neighbor."

And all the people saw sounds, and flames, and the sound of the shofar, and a steaming mountain; and when the people saw, they shuddered and stood at a distance. And they said to Moshe: Speak with us, and we will hear, let the Almighty not speak to us, otherwise we will die (Torah, Book of Shemot 20, chapter Yitro).

And even before that there was a chain of astonishing and amazing events witnessed and participated by the Jewish people - the so-called Egyptian executions - a terrible drought, flood, locust infestation, etc., for 10 years in a row - and how the Jews miraculously managed to escape from the Pharaoh’s troops (the waters of the Red Sea gulf parted and allowed them to pass, and then closed up and absorbed the pharaoh’s vanguard). Whether this happened for sure or not, the fact is that the salvation of the Jews in such a situation was a real miracle.

We do not know what the nature of God is, there may be a variety of opinions on this topic, but there is no other fact similar in persuasiveness, showing that at least the Ten Commandments may have been transmitted to us by God Himself. And if you do not believe this, then all the more so you cannot believe all the other prophets. Therefore, for those who believe in God, the true religion should be based on the Ten Commandments given by God and on being their continuation the Torah and the Bible.

About Jesus, who is the main reason for the discrepancy between Judaism and Christianity. As you know, Jesus Christ was a Jew (in his earthly life) - he was born a Jew and grew up among the Jews. Jesus is the Greek interpretation of his name, in Hebrew it sounded Yeshua or Yeshu, which is an abbreviation of his full name Yehoshua, and Christ means an Envoy or mediator, in this case, the Envoy of God. Naturally, he was raised in Judaism. And he recognized himself as a Jew. Not once in his passionate sermons did he express opinions that seriously contradict Judaism. And this is natural. After all, God gave the Jewish people the Ten Commandments and the Torah - the basis of the Jewish religion; every Jew knew it. And Jesus did not question them in the least. In fact, he preached Judaism. Moreover, he fought against violations of the requirements of Judaism. Jesus said (see the Gospel of Matthew 5: 17-18, - the second most written and most informative of the Gospels): Do not think that I have come to break the law (Torah) or the prophets ... Truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single thing will pass from the law. So, whoever breaks one of these commandments ... he will be called the least one in the Kingdom of Heaven; and whoever does and teaches, he will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven (ibid., 5:19). Not everyone who says to Me: Lord! God! will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father in heaven (7:21). The Gospel of Luke: But rather heaven and earth will pass away than one line of the law will be lost ((16:17). Do not commit adultery; do not kill; do not steal; do not bear false witness; honor your father and your mother (18:22). As you can see, Jesus insists on the full fulfillment of the laws given by the Almighty, which is the essence of traditional Judaism. The first Gospel was written by Mark (John-Mark). It was written 10-15 years after the execution of Jesus Christ, mainly according to the stories of Peter, who was the closest companion of Jesus and after his execution became the head of the first Judeo-Christian community. I call it that because in the first decades of its existence there was still no clear division into Jewish and Christian religions, and those who recognized Jesus did not at all think that they had switched to another religion, having abandoned the faith of the fathers. They observed all the requirements of traditional Judaism, differing from those around them only by the preaching that the Messiah had already come, was already with them, as well as a particularly strong preaching of mercy, which was the main content of what Jesus taught. The Gospel of Mark was created shortly after the execution of Jesus and, obviously, had not yet had time to acquire many myths that arose later, i.e., it is the most trustworthy. Here are the important commandments of Jesus cited in it: The first commandment: ‘Hear, Israel! The Lord our God is One Lord; And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength:’ Behold, the first commandment! The second is similar to it: Love your neighbor as yourself; there is no other greater commandment than these (12: 29-31); Whoever wants to be the first, be the last of all and a servant to all (9:35); How difficult it is for those who hope for riches to enter the Kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to pass through the ears of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God (10: 24,25); On the possibility of certain activities on Saturday: "Saturday for man, not man for Saturday" (2:27), - Jesus’ only correction to the Ten Commandments and, in general, to the commandments of the Torah. The only serious heresy of Jesus was that he said that he was already in the Kingdom of Heaven and made it clear that he is the Envoy of God. He did not preach any other judgments that could give rise to another religion. Everything he said fit into mainstream Judaism. The split of Judaism and the emergence of Christianity from a part of it occurred in connection with the execution of Jesus, with the decision of the question of whether he was the Messiah. At the first stage, the main contradictions between the Christian and Jewish religions were questions about whether Jesus was the Messiah - the Savior and what commandments of the Most High Christians should fulfill. These contradictions did not prevent them from coexisting within the same religion. At the present time, after the adoption of the doctrine of the Trinity, the main contradiction between Christianity and Judaism is the question of whether Jesus is God. There are also serious questions about whether Jesus is the
