It's because God gave us a will. For humans, they have a will to follow God and also they have a will to deny him as their savior. Some people are doubters, they ask themselves if God is true, why he didn't show up when I have a problem and such. In that way, they lost their faith and switch to a religion that they think can save them. It's unfortunate that some people will just create a religion to control and manipulate people for their own doings. Because they are using the name of God, however, it's the karma that will get them revenge.

I agree with that part you said some people use religion to manipulate other people who are dorks, goobers,knuckleheads.. But the fact that we all have a free will is something I don't believe .I believe their is a power that controls all our actions... Everything has been predestinated and you have no choice but to follow that script

Diverse problem exist and people are constantly finding solutions to it through spirituality. Though there are genuine religion but some exist for the purpose of exploiting people. We need a descending spirit to be able to differentiate between genuine and non genuine religion.

So true, doubt does make us question our existence and even the situation we are facing, it a like a seed if it makes it root strong it can break a person completely and this sometimes makes a person ethics or change his religion.

There is no one answer to this question. Some people believe that religion provides a sense of community and provides a way to connect with others. Others believe that religion can help people deal with difficult life experiences. And still others believe that religion can offer guidance on how to live a good life.

I think it is the fault of the devil. The enemy deceive the minds of people from the truth. There is one correct religion but many people choose the wrong path.
Most religions are just invented by people. Some of them are not inspired by the Holy Spirit. There are man made religions. People are ignorant and just believe easily whatever doctrine is introduce to them.

Religions are like roads that people choose to follow but some of them are false religion which do not really lead them to the right path. False religions are biggest recruiters to hell. Catholic religion is so popular but they are Mary worshippers.

There are many religions to trick people. That is why there are Christian missionaries to help people know about Christ.

It is not necessary that we consider the devil as a being or an individual, but we can consider him as a combined form of doubt, worry, stress, jealousy, sickness, depression, anything bad or evil that present and make our life worst.

This is a total failure to GOD, we were created to only have one religion of the LORD GOD HIMSELF. But the devil wanted to have his share also and brought confusion to the world. Not only did he brought one religion but he brought so many of them that has left the whole world confused not knowing which one is the correct one. But this confusion should not be, the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY already gave us a benchmark to know the true religion.

HE even sent the first apostles to show us the right way, the apostle Paul warned the churches to be alert because so many antichrists have gone out to the world to confuse the church of Christ. The benchmark of all this is that we need to look for a religion that is centralizing the word of GOD, a bible teaching religion, a religion that is telling people to leave sin and go back to Hollines for without Holliness no one will enter into the kingdom of GOD Hebrews 12:14

Because of the false interpretations of the only one God. Doctrines divides brethren/sisters but true love brings people to oneness. That's the key to cure the pandemic of the divided one body of believers

Religions are branches of the same thing. Religions arise out if many factors

1. Understanding God. How does each religion understand God and His manifestations? Each religion believes it is right from the other.

2. Cultural practices. Some religions have some cultural practices which others do not have.

3. Greed and power

Some religions are formed on the background of greed and power 

4. Different opinions

There are religions formed because people differed on opinions.

Your point number two is a solid point which we often forget or ignore while discussing different beliefs or practices,. Different culture plays a vital role in building different religious belief, because of our upbringing and things we observe around ourself.

The logic is that all of us were born with so many differences. It also includes the different beliefs that make us have different religions.

It personally didn't believe in religion. All are human beings. We have the right to follow which religion we like.but it is necessary to follow one in order to live in society, which was forced by people.

People have different religions for the same reasons that people have different opinions and different tastes, because they were raised in different ways and in different places and in different families and at different times, and with different brains.

From my understanding I think that the reason why we have so many religions in the world is because some persons think that what the other religions are treating are not correct and according to God's standards so the person starts a religion himself that he thinks it's right.
