Ignoring the things that are false, 99.9% out of all of this is 1) either copied from other 'sources', 2) already guessed over a thousand years earlier by mainly Ancient Greek scolars and philosophers (that also goed for the spherical Earth prediction you mentioned) or 3) established by simple observation. The other 0.1% is either pure luck or so vague it aplies to anything anyway. Wake up man, read some real history books!
On the subject;
All religions are born from the need to explain things. During each time when a religion was created (well, 'thought of' really), people couldn't explain something in everyday life because science hadn't advanced very far yet. If there was something that couldn't be explained, people thought "well, some higher power must've done it". Also, back then people were so enormously stupid, they blindly followed any madman who had the 'answers'.
This is why I cannot for the life of me understand why someone in today's day and age can really believe (I mean believe, not follow some ideals) in these fairy tales. Basically everything can be explained already. Furthermore, why one feels the absolute need to force their ridiculous beliefs on others is totally beyond me. Can't you just stay with those who feel like you do? Is someone else's belief on the other side of the world actually lowering your chance to get into the better part of the afterlife? Why? Does your seat on the clouds grow when there are more like you? Shouldn't you just go to heaven or whatever and then laugh at those who were wrong? Leave everyone else alone already! Like those idiots in Timbuktu recently. Why destroy some old tombs, that have been there for a thousand years, with people in them that are of your own religion? What good would that do? Do these people actually think their would be pleased somehow? I'd reckon honorable people like Saladin and Muhammed himself would turn around in their graves if they knew that these were the people they established and protected kingdoms for. This is just one example, every single religion is guilty of something idiotic.
But enough ranting.
To answer the poll, none are right. There is no one true god, all monotheistic religions believe in the same god, even when most of the zealots don't even realize it. They all believe there is only one god. Basically you can't go wrong. You should only need to decide if you think monotheistic religions are right about there being one god, or that there exists in fact, actually only polytheism.
For the record, I am atheist. This rant is not an attack on anyone personally. As much as one can be. I'm also proud to live in a country where atheists are the majority and are growing.
