That sounds like "Valis" (If you read Phillip K. Dick). Pretty great sounding I must say. I have pretty much the same problem you have with the other religions, only I include Xtianity too. Still, it seem slike each of these religions command over a billion followers - obviously people are finding some of what they want. It kinda makes me wonder how much culture affects a person's prefrence for religion?
