I say man created god in his image. not the other way around. look at the origins of the abrahamic religions, Abraham was from Babylon and the sky god in their pantheon was named Jehovah. when you add to the fact that the first savior God was Horus, and dyonisus was the first god to be named alpha and Omega it's pretty clear that the big 3 at least, took most of it's ideas from surrounding cultures.
actually, to find the absolute TRUTH concerning Abraham, one needs to find/read the correct set of scrolls.
here is how the Torah explains it in plain English:
"The baby Abraham, with his mother and nurse, were hidden in a cave for ten years.
At the age of three years, Abraham knew that it was silly to worship the sun or any other idol, but that there was a great G‑d, who created the sun and the moon, and the whole world, who, though Himself unseen, sees everything and knows everything, and is the real King of the World, more powerful than Nimrod. And since that time, Abraham's faith in G‑d grew stronger every day.
At the age of ten, Abraham decided to leave the cave and to go to old Noah and Shem, of whom his mother had told him many wonderful stories. Unknown to anybody, Abraham made his way from the low country to the mountainous region of Ararat in the land of Kedem, where Noah and his family lived. He was made welcome by old Noah and Shem, who taught him all they knew about G‑d and the ways of G‑d.
Abraham stayed there for nearly 39 years, until the year 1997. It was at the end of this period, when he was 48 years old, while still at Noah's house, that Abraham heard about the world-shattering event of the Tower of Babel, which took place in the land of Shinear, where Nimrod reigned supreme. Nimrod and his people wanted to build a tower that would reach up to heaven, so that they might establish their reign upon the heaven as well as on the earth. It was the height of arrogance and defiance of men against G‑d, and it led to confusion and to their dispersal and division into seventy tongues and nations. Abraham decided that it was high time for him to go out and teach them the truth about G‑d, and about the falsehood and worthlessness of the idols. He knew that in defying Nimrod, and even his own father, he would be risking his life, for Nimrod had proclaimed himself god and demanded that all the people worship him."
this portion of scripture you cannot find in the KJV or modern Bibles.
and yes, Abraham was from Iraq [Babylon]. his child with Hagar makes Ishmael 50% Egyptian/50% Iraq, and the promised son Isaac would be 100% Iraq.
So, the Hebrew/Jews are in fact related to modern day Muslims!!
