In the first two periods, the people of the world did not know eanh other and lacked means of communications, GOD then founded through human beings, at different countries His religons based on the usages and customs of the races particularly called to practice them .

Nowadys, all parts of the world are explared, means of transportation are more and more rapid, humanity know itself better, GOD unites all Religion in one : CAODAISM. Moreover, human thought does change. Mankind aspire to have a universal conception of love and justice, that is to say, in order to survive, they need harmony among all peoples!; None of us would say: " My Religon is the only saviour of all Mankind " .

This conceptiong would lead Mankind to many horrible cruelties and wars .
