This is a rather narrow view. There are more religions in the world today that aren't a branch from Noah than there are ones that do. I mean you've got 3 religions that branch out from Noah (Christianity, Islam, and Judaism) and there is many, many more that don't. Hinduism, Buddhism, Germanic Heathenry, native American religions, Voodoo, African religions, Wicca, and the list goes on and on.

Buddhists believing they will come back as a dog if they are naughty.
Christians saying a man was born of a virgin, and came back to life after dying.
Catholics thinking wearing a condom is sin, as is homosexuality.
Muslims thinking a paedophile is a prophet...
...it's hard to know where to start really!
