Are all religions equal?

The "desert religions", ie, Christianity, Judaism and Islamism are the stupidest, IMHO. They have been forcedly introduced by the rulers to assure power, and have only brought intolerance, fanatism and a slave-like (opposed to the original pagan master-like) mentality to the world.\n\nBuddhism is on the news, and is about self-improvement and making the world a better place by respecting and tolerating people. I specially like Zen Buddhism. It shows, however, signs of the horrible dominance-submission asian culture.\n\nSimply put: We are inside this little box called life and no  religion, no one, ever, made any real progress to for us to understand it better. Science is getting there, and, I hope, will figure out eventually.

NO making fun of all religion is fair game

Is this a question that is supposed to make sense - there's war and violense all over the world - the problems in the world are caused by equal parts of every religion and race.

I think God is just God.  Religions are PATHS to God.

Christians, Jews and Muslims believe in the same 'ONE' God.

Every does have their own Religion.\nReligion is how we "act upon" what we believe.\nRemember we have freedom of religion in these U.S.

Certainly. In fact, if ALL religions were equally respected or if ALL religions were equally non-existant, we would have a LOT more peace than we do now.

There were many religions before Christianity. Judaism is one, just the Old Testament. Other religions have multiple Gods and Goddesses. Some have none. Christianity is not the only and not the first and maybe not even the right religion.

Right. They all worship the One True God, written and spelled differently in Aramaic and in Arabic. All monotheistic religions are basically one and the same.

I would just like to say that I disrespect all religions equally. Peace and chicken grease.

The example of the Jews work best...\n\nNext, you can also claim that Islam also claims to be the religion of the one true God and thus are worthy of going to heaven.\n\nAnd finally, if a God was really all-loving, it didn't matter which religion you join if you are moral enough. A true all-loving God won't blame you for your igorance in joining other religion, especially after all, he did gave you free will to do that

Of course -\n\n- but it's not a universal or a constant.\nAt every moment, each individual has to discover or define their own right way.\n\nThat disagrees with all religions, but that's because all religions are wrong: they're mostly the result of one person trying to improse his own "right way" on other people.

No, there isn't a religion that is the "best".  There is  religion that is the best for you.  My mother is Muslim, I am Catholic but we don't think one religion is better than te other.

It's not that Islam is the obvious solution to everyone's spiritual needs, it's that it's the obvious solution to all your spiritual needs. Why do you think there are so many religions?

If people sat back and realized just how similar most beliefs really are they'd be surprised. I think all religion is virtually the same and all religions taut the same things. All people want the same things regardless of religion or non-religion. We all want peace, love, a better tolerant world for our children, a better life for ourselves. Its when we start to claim we're one particular religion and start spouting from a sacred book that we take literally instead of as a guideline and start shoving it down other people's throats that's when the problem starts. \n\nWhen people stop evangelizing, take care of their own life but show compassion without price, live by example, avoid harassing others to convert, and spread the fundamental beliefs without all the extraneous trivial details exclusive to one religion or another.....then we'll start to see some real improvement.

What you have to remember is that all religions, not just christianity, are based upon the "fact" that they are the only "true" religion.  That's how guilt is purged.  Consider the crusades, christians killed all non-christians, conversion usually being the only option that left you breathing.  Today, muslims kill all non-muslims.  Of course, this does not include every member of that religion.  My personal believe is that the majority of religions promote discrimination, bigotry and ignorance.  If you do not do as the great "enter name here" then you are wrong and deserve nothing better than death and suffering
