Ok, there are HUNDREDS of RELIGIONS ... but there are only TWO religious SYSTEMS in the world. When God expelled Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden for sinning against Him, they chose to cover that original sin by their own inadequate efforts and became the forerunner of every religion and religious system that tries to earn God's forgiveness and favor by their own works and rules. This is illustrated by the sacrifice of Cain that God rejected. The second and only effective system for covering sin and gaining peace with God was established by God Himself when He provided Adam and Eve with a suitable covering that He Himself provided, through the sacrifice of innocent blood ... foreshadowing the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the sins of the world, and illustrated by the sacrifice of Abel that God accepted.
