Discuss a story inside the hebrew or christian canon that also appears in another religious system. which do you think came first, and why?

The first story I can think of is the story of Christ's death. In most other religions the man/being that is being worshipped died at one point (obviously lol) Some were resurrected, some stayed dead and people continued worshipping them. Although out of all of them, Jesus was the only one whose body has never been located.

As to which I think came first and why, I'd have to say it depends on the religion you compare Christianity to. Christianity is about 2000+ years old, but when compared to Hinduism it's a meer child. (Hinduism was the first recorded religion to my knowledge)

the answer to your question is a. the salt plains

in 1811, he led an expedition, known as the george c. sibley expedition, to improve relations with the pawnee and kansa tribes, and also to locate the rumored jefferson's salt mountain
