Christianity, like all religions of the world, was the creation of the human mind.  No religion–not Christianity, Judaism, Islam or any other was directly inspired by God as adherents of a particular religion would claim.  How do we know this?

Evidence abounds.  In the case of the three major religions above, each claims that theirs is the divinely inspired religion of God.  

Why then do all three religions want to lay claim to the same title?  

If a particular religion was in fact inspired by God, would not God have gone to the necessary lengths to place this truth, front and center, in the minds of all human beings so that we could all know the truth from the start?  So that we could quickly and easily identify the true religion?

Is it possible that God, the creator of the universe, could have forgotten to take such an important and crucial step, one that could have prevented all the confusion that exists today related to this debate?

Impossible.

However, having ruled out that possibility, we now suddenly find ourselves faced with an unexpected Pandora’s box. If God did not write this crucial truth into the human mind from the very beginning, then this is clear and undisputable evidence supporting the conclusion that God did not inspire any of these religions.  

On the other hand, if God had indeed inspired a particular religion, would not God have made this clearly known to the human race.  And in this way avoided all the blood that was shed in the name of religion throughout human history.  

And why has God remained silent on the issue of wars being waged throughout history in the name of religion.  Is it that God doesn’t care?  Is it that God does not meddle in the affairs of the human race?

One would think that to avoid future religious wars God would eventually instill in the human mind the truth about which religion is the true religion.  The fact that God doesn’t do this is more than sufficient proof that this is not an issue to the creator.  

This leads us to the following conclusions.  The fact that God does not take steps to resolve this issue tells us that a) religion is not a priority to God, b) that there is no divinely inspired religion in the world  because God does not even consider the matter important enough to clarify the issue to the human race once and for all, and c) that all religions of the world are the offspring of the human mind,
