With each religion or mythology and new religion seems to be born from it. If you take a look at Norse mythology at the end where Ragnorak was suppose to happen and there were only two humans left to repopulate the world. By looking at Judaism in the beginner there were 2 humans created by god to populate the world. After Judaism Christ was born and thus began the religion of Christianity. With this its shows that at least the different religions connect with each other through some passage, message or teaching.

Norse mythology’s ending for its religion was that Ragnorak, or the great war of the gods would kill each other. The war would leave all the gods that were in the prophecy dead and leave 2 humans alive to repopulate the world. The passage that I read states “Two mortals, Lif and Lifthrasir escaped the destruction of Ragnarök, because they had hid themselves at Hoddmimir's wood (Hoddmimir was probably a giant); they will repopulate Midgard.” This states that there were two humans left in in the world to repopulate the world or known in Norse mythology Asgard. During the end of Norse Mythology it sounds like it is starting the beginning of Judaism.

For Judaism it begins with God had created two humans Adam and Eve. These two humans were made in the shape of god and were to populate the world. If you look back into Norse Mythology it states that there were two humans left to repopulate the world. In the Passage I read online it states that “Adam and Eve were the first humans, according to the Jewish, Islamic, and Christian religions, and all humans have descended from them. As stated in the Bible, Adam and Eve were created by God to take care of His creation, to populate the earth.” This is showing that the two religions seem to be connected from the end into a new beginning. During the ancient time when the yearly calendar started for out time, Jesus Christ was born. During his time Jesus had died for us and afterwards rose to heaven, with these evens the religion of Christianity was founded. In he holy bible it states in the New Testament “20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a adream, saying, Joseph, thou son of bDavid, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the cHoly Ghost. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his aname bJESUS: for he shall csave his people from their sins.” This states that God had his son Jesus and that he was to save the people from their sins. This is how Christianity started and was told throughout generations.

This should matter because it is showing that religions are born out of other religions dying. In the beginning there was Norse mythology that was created/thought up by the Germans. When that died out Judaism was born/ thought up. In the middle of Judaism, Christianity was created. This is showing that religions are being created after another one is born. This is important because this is showing how religions continue to grow and that they are all connected some way.
