Why is it that all major religions originate from the east?
It depends what you mean by the East. Most of the Worlds major religions originated in one of three areas. )The Middle East (Judaism,Christianity,Islam) 2)India (Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism) 3)The Far East (Confucianism, Daoism, Shinto) These three areas were the Worlds oldest areas of civilisation and were where most of the Worlds population lived thousands of years ago. It is only to be expected that the religious ideas that emerged out of these ancient societies would endure.
