due to the many great civilizations that have formed in the prehistoric and ancient times.
Didn't History technically start with the first civilization? Maybe you mean something else by it though, just struck me as odd.

Maybe you could use your 5,4 braincells. Oh no, that would be too easy, sorry.
Ya know, they have these fancy online-thingys like www.wikipedia.org nowadays, I bet you heard about it. Or even google. But duh, searching and wasting 2 minutes of your life is probaly harder than creating an account and posting this.

this my essay is a comparison between the many types of religions like monotheism and polytheism, with examples like zoroasternism, judism, christiany, etc. is that a better explanation?

Just because a person's first post what asking a question that could've easily been answered by a search engine, doesnt give you a right to flame them.. Maybe that person wanted your opinion on the situation or task at hand, and see if he/she could learn anything that he/she didnt find on a random search engine. Jeez, people are too quick to judge..
New Thing: Ask questions first, flame later.
PLUS: I doubt, any human being can survive with 4 or 5 braincells, nevertheless have the knowledge to make an account and post.. Dont care whether or not you were being sarcastic, just being blunt.

Essentially, the world has only one major religion in the prehistoric era, and that was animism.

there's an entire thread for help with homework in off-topic. just because the average iq in this section is higher doesn't mean that we'll give you a good grade on a paper.

Well, it's not like we're going to intentionally deceive anyone, that would just be ridiculous.
