	* On Believing
		For most religious believers of most faiths, it is not enough to have a spiritual sense that life itself stands as evidence for a supreme being (or a supreme purpose, or whatever).
		Most religious people respond by saying the story is allegorical, it isn't a complete history, it is a recitation of particular events as part of a specific moral lesson, but it omits many events not relevant to the story being told, like where Cain's wife came from.
		People outside the field sometimes take this candor as a defect in science or scientists, especially if they aren't trained to understand and respect the central role of evidence.

	Hinduism - HinduWiki
		Many Hindus believe that their religious tradition was fully formed by the time of Rāma, the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
		The Ṛgvedic deity Dyaus, regarded as the father of the other deities, is linguistically cognate with Zeus—the king of the gods in Greek mythology, Iovis (gen. of Jupiter)—the king of the gods in Roman mythology, and Ziu in Germanic mythology[5].
		This is possibly because the largely pastoral Vedic people, and subsequent generations, relied so heavily on the cow for milk and dairy products, tilling of fields and fuel for fertilizer, that its status as a 'caretaker' led to identifying it as an almost maternal figure (hence the term gau mata, or Cow Mother).
