You know, I don't know. As you could have well guessed. I'm agree though, I do believe somewhere around there, sadly lol, that some priests or whoever was in charge and writing their sacred documents, did put their 'gods' opinions in there - and changed whatever was correct (in their opinon) around to fit more... 'moral' laws of the world. Such as stoning any man that steals something. Very moralistic.
Chariots of the Gods?: Unsolved Mysteries of the Past is a book written in 1968 by Erich von Däniken. It is centered on the hypothesis that many ancient civilizations' technologies and religion were given to them by space travelers who were welcomed as gods.

dont remeber stoning so much in the bible, sounds like something from Deutronomy or leviticus, if i remember correctly (and i may not) they were allegedly written by Moses (OT)
Jesus said to us who ever is without sin cast the first stone.
Oo I know. In the Mayan or what was it?? Mycenaens? I'm not sure, but it was very brutal race, and they threw everyone that did something 'against the rules' out into the river, or would put them in slavery until their debts were paid off. And often times they never were delivered from their slavery. I vaguely remember these being laws and not their religion. ^_^ but that their religion was very stern as well. Perhaps that was where I got the stoning idea from?? Too much history : )

Check out the Terra Papers, I really know nothing about it's authenticity (ha as if any of this could be checked out) but it's an interesting read none the less. It covers a lot of religious dogma which is explained as alien politics/war/personal struggle.
