why different religions can not find out that a religion is a way to god not away to war with each other?

God. (cheating) This explanation is what everyone eventually resorts to when the other answers fail. Now, before I go any further, I should make clear that I'm not talking about any of the gods defined in various religions. Throughout all of human history, we've been trying to explain existence. But nobody has ever succeeded. And it's likely that nobody ever will. So we create the concept of God, whose only necessary property is being "that which explains existence." \n\nThis doesn't tell us much about god, though. It doesn't mean that any particular religion is correct. It merely defines god as something which answers The Question, because we have not been able to.

Because like a lot of Christians, it's hard for them to grasp the concept of 'other religions'.  Gods forbid they be wrong.  The fact that Pagan religions are over 5000 years old and have over 2000 religions seems difficult for some to understand.

gr8 question, gr8 way of thinking, good human nature. where r u from?? LoL\n\nwell the answer is not in religion coz all religions r the same but in the dark nature of the human race who likes always to be the boss the leader and to make everyone different than him under his control. so that's how they r acting both sides. they hate each other not becoz of god but becoz of their benefits. \nLove+respect+humanity+god=Islam+Christianity+jewism+humanism\n\nwish we live in another world..

A good point. Religions are supposedly faith-based, but then tack on requirements to keep that particular label. Even an agnostic has to meet the requirement of believing there is no God, so I guess the answer is no religion meets the parameter of not requiring anything to be a part of it.

One of the reasons for all the religious conflict is that man has incorporated his own laws into what the law of God is. Everything is about pleasing man in this day and time and not focused on pleasing God and doing what is Biblical. \n\nMany churches preach and teach what is acceptable in their own eyes. No one is coming from the Bible any more. But those are the ones who will face stiffer judgement in the end.

In my opinion answering logically and with the bible is a contradiction in itself so my answer is that I think that is one of the most ironic things about religion.  Religions, in general preach peace, love, and moral values to their followers.  However, many wars have been fought over religion and cultural differences stemming directly from the religion of a certain people.  Priests blessing war and preaching love thy neighbor borders on hypocrisy.  It may not be the answer you want to hear but its my opinion.

The important thing is not whether religions or Gods are right.  It is that people have the freedom to believe and worship what and how they wish.\n\nSadly most religions then spoil this freedom by trying to preach and dictate to those who do not share their beliefs.   The day cannot be far away when this practice may be made unlawful.\n\nIn the UK there is a law of harassment which could conceivably be used against persistent religious pushers.

In short, most religions say that other religions are wrong. So if you really believed in one of them, you would not be able to believe in any other ones.

That is an interesting query, but it raises a problem. Through the years I have debated with some knowledgeable theologians about the polytheism of Christianity and the monotheism of Judaism. The debates always ended in a stalemate.\n\nHowever, many of the religions that are not Bible based have no problem with polytheism and their believers make up the majority of people on the planet.

People in the world do not know what their religion is exactly. There are so many types of each religion now, nobody knows what they are.

Many religions preach unity, but only through everyone conforming to one set of beliefs, which honestly doesn't work.\n\nI think unity can be developed through accepting that one's view of reality is not how reality actually is.  Respecting others' beliefs, validating others' experiences and keeping religion as a private practice, not a societal system, are three steps in the direction of peace.

God didn't make varying sets of rules for different religions. Man made all religions but one, and made his own rules for each. God made a set of rules for HIS religion, the one true one.

Because, everyone thinks they are right and everyone else is wrong. Therefore the fighting is simply an act of human nature. It is difficult because some religions may prohibit people to believe in other religions, therefore resulting in what like the Spaniards did, making everyone Christian. We must fight, although we must also respect and love our enemies.

It is in the human's nature to fear what they don't understand. It is lack of exposure to differences and an ignorant attitude that create fear. Religions can foster this ignorance, yes.

Well, that really isn't true of everyone. There are plenty of people who have no problem at all in making their religion known.\n\nThose who do not, I am sure, have a wide variety of reasons.\nSome people are very private by nature and feel their religion is something personal to them and just not comfortable sharing their beliefs to anyone other than the ones they are close to.\n\nSome people don't discuss their religion because of a sense of propiety. They were taught that discussing religion, except under certain circumstance is not polite, same with politics.\n\nSome people may live in an area or enviroment that are predjudiced against particular beliefs and they feel it best to keep them to themselves.\n\nThere are many other reasons, but these are a few.

Thats a broad statement and basically not true.\n\nYou see, all religions are peaceful, all of them.... christianity, islam, judaism, hinduism, buddhism......\n\nIts some of the followers that spread hatred towards other religions.\n\nChristianity blame Islam\nIslam blames Judaism\nJudaism blames Christiantity\nHindu blame Christianity, Islam and Judiams....\nAnd it goes on and on and on....\n\nIf this stops, I guarantee peace, ofcourse, with God's help.\n\nSo its the followers, the extrmeists in all religions that cause the problems and not really the religion.

As long as there are religions, there are wars against countries.\n\nIf there were no religions, the wars would be of a more honest kind.\n\nnow there`s christians declaring wars for "democracy" in the name of god.\nIt would make a slight difference in honesty, if a president or nation would just say "we want your oil, period"\n\nreligion is a shield for real intentions.
