I believe that God is one for all religions. There is no proof but adequate logic to make anybody understand.
Then a question comes to my mind that "Why There Are So Many Religions?".
Initial Vedic people used to worship the five elements of nature. Adequate proof can be found out in different excavations in India. They used Agni as a medium of worship. The Vedas were never written down they were only "Shrutis". In the olden times like today all the living human beings were not of the same intellectual level, hence to make all these people understand and get them into one common platform a mechanics was required in the form of a 'Way of Life'. So that everyone can live in harmony in the same society.

If the actual Vedic way of worship was told to all, not every body can comprehend it at the same level, not everyone can understand the cause of worship. Hence rituals were born.
To make everybody stay within a disciplined society certain rules were
made so that all including the intellectuals and the commoner form the
same fabric of the society. These rules were conveyed in the garb of
religion, so that all will fear these rules and hence abide by them. If
we analyse all the religions of the world they will tell us a set of
rules to be followed and certain rules for not doing a thing. These rules differed from one geographical location to the other based on things like food habits of
its people, climate and natural resources. These guidelines became the way of life for people living in that geographical region.
Humans were scattered all around the globe in isolated pockets when there was no trade. When these scattered group of individuals started interacting with other set of scattered individuals they started to identify the different beliefs/way of life the other group of individuals were having and the difference in their beliefs vis a vis the other group. So they started to identify themselves differently. Soon they started a name for each group. I am not a Hindu if others don't recognise me as a Hindu! They are the one who have named me who I am.
