Are There Two or More Communications from God?

The first elimination is simple, atheism and agnosticism’s claim to knowledge is humankind or lack of external evidence. For Zoroastrianism, there was one prophet at a time. Traditional Chinese religions are really more philosophies like Confucianism or Taoism.

While I loved reading the Tao Te Ching, it is an eastern philosophy akin to Plato or Socrates, not a religion claiming God spoke. The challenging one here is the catch-all ethnic religions, in which Judaism and Hinduism are both included on the Wikipedia page.

When I began my search, I did not consider a small localized ethnic religion in this day and age, unless there was also a clear well-distributed written tradition. If anyone can point to a religion in the ethnic religion category that I don’t have here that meets our current criteria, please let me know.

I included Buddhism, even though there is a single person, Buddha, the attachment to Hinduism made me consider the evaluation for completeness’ sake. In addition, Buddhism does have a larger following. Even though I did not include a large following as a criterion, a large following seemed like a rational criterion, so I added Buddhism back.
