It makes a lot of sense. Especially the OCD suggestion. I've always wondered about the significance of the ablutions in Islamic prayer. The Koran dictates it but doesn't really explain it. The seizures also make sense. Back then they would have had no scientific understanding. I was a bit surprised by the common threads of other religions when I read the Koran years ago. It seemed very piecemeal but I didn't consider it to the extent that you have explain it here. I have often tried to explain to my sons that at the base, most religions have a "supreme being" or a "higher power." This being always has a different name but the factual base is generally the close. You have given me some easier explanations for that.
