The claim is that the spiritual laws remain unchanged, but the social laws change. So, in which ever order you think they were revealed in, what were the social laws that were changed between Hinduism to Buddhism and to Judaism? Then, after that, what were the social laws that Jesus changed?Social teachings have nothing to with beliefs. They have to with laws the believer has to do, if they are to please God in their religion. Also there may be different emphasis on what virtues should be practiced most of all. Then in the case of Baha'i Faith, for instance, we emphasize the oneness of mankind today, because the time has come for that. Independent investigation of truth was at the top of the list of what Abdu'l-Baha advocated when He came to the West in His travels. In Muhammad's time because He was in the midst of polytheists God warned through Him not to "join other gods with God".
Then... what about the changes in beliefs in each religion?
