Name one. Christianity has a trinity, so it’s out. Judaism has the feminine aspect of the divine (Hochma), so it’s out. Muhammad recognized Arabic goddesses in Surah al-Najim 19-20, so Islam is polytheistic. Hinduism is henotheistic.
I don’t see any monotheistic traditions to criticize.

The belief in One God, has no flaw, an all powerful God that needs no other. I do see a flaw in the belief of many gods-its chaotic to say the least, and brings just that, many of them are based on nothing but violence, self serving, etc.Answer by Dean A
All religions, not just monotheistic ones, are flawed because they’re all too self righteous to accept any other idea. Religion was created by ancient people who had a limited understanding of the world around them, and they used religion or “Acts of God” to explain natural occurrences that they couldn’t explain any other way. After a while, man got greedy and saw an opportunity to gain power and wealth by using religion to control masses of simple minded people. If there is a higher power, it only makes sense that the important thing is to have faith, not dismissing any other idea of practicing faith that doesn’t correlate with your own way. That is the biggest flaw in religion.
