I would bet that humans, especially in the early times that interpreted all of the now current religious texts - were poorly educated, biased, and also human. So ... there were "additions/mis-translations/an individuals belief/better if phrased this way" type of interpretations over thousands of years.

My bet... in the grand universe scheme of things, a creator doesn't give two craps about which human created, modified, "game of telephone" religion a person follows. As long as that person attempts to be good, and improve themselves, and kind. And ask for forgiveness of mistakes.

I believe G0d is smarter than all of us, and looks past all these individual human infightings of "my football team (errr religion) is better than yours" type.
