God
Doesn't it seem likely that God would show itself to people in a form they would understand? God would put on a different outfit and face to try and teach each culture the same things. Because really, at the core all religions teach basically the same ideas.
The whole "my religion is right and yours isn't" issue is quite pointless since if there is a God and if there is only one....then um...well, what are we arguing about again? Oh yeah....that's right who gets to name and describe it. How vain.....
Do you really think that 1000s of years ago the people of a deep jungle tribe would understand or worship the Christian God? Don't you think God would know this and instead show them something that would make sense?
Heck...for that matter.....Jesus, Mohamed and Buddha may all have been the voice of God on Earth designed to reach a specific people. They all tried to pass on similar wisdom.
I find it sad, but I am sure that if there was a second coming of Christ most people would miss it because they weren't really interested in what he would have to say, but more concerned with how he looked.
