Explanation:

This question is important, and so is the answer, but it is not as difficult as one might think. In fact, we can begin by looking at how to recognize what is false because this can help us get rid of a host of theological systems that, well, just don’t work. There are two main ways to determine if something is not true: internal and external. By internal we mean if a belief is internally inconsistent, i.e., self-contradictory, then it cannot be true. By “external means” we mean that if a belief is contradicted by a fact, then the belief cannot be true. Therefore, if we were to find religions that fit either of these two criteria, we would know which religions cannot be true by simply applying logic and evidence to them. But finding out which ones are not true does not mean we have found one that is.
