Can anyone say specifcally what is so good about their religion?

all religions are just the paths. they take u to the same destination. Its like asking which is the best route from paris to newyork?.  All the answers u will get are like the ones that the eight blind men gave while describing the elephant in front of them. all are saying about the asame elephant but each cannot see the other.\n\nso decide for urself. do u want the 'means' of do u want the 'ends'. presonally, as far as religion is concerned, i feel that u sould not concentrate much on the means, the end is much more satisfying.

You left one of your list: "God said so" or "I've had personal experience with God."  Those people scare me.\n\nThe Bible is a good book.  The stories are engaging and are generally pleasant to read.  But that doesn't make it true.  I think that in part Christians believe in God for the same reason I'd like to believe that the Harry Potter books are true.  \n\nBut beyond that, the purpose of religion is to explain the unexplainable, to provide a source of morality, and to try to address the age-old question of the meaning of life.  If people believe they are serving God, they feel that their life has purpose.  If people believe in God, they can start to determine if they are good people because at least they know what it means to be a good person.  Whether or not they live up to their moral ideals, at least they know what to strive for.  If people believe in the Biblical myths, they know where they came from, why there here, and why things are they way they are.  Even if that knowledge is entirely wrong, they don't have to wonder about it.  Religion also provides continuity and some sort of stability from day to day, week to week, and generation to generation.\n\nNo one's going to be able to give you factual evidence for the existance of God because he doesn't exist.  But I'm not sure that even matters.  Believing in God isn't about being right it's about believing.  I'm not sure that the accuracy of the stories is really relevent to their power.\n\nBut that said, I'm still an atheist :)

you know the same God? right. so much so that you have typed it G-d...right. as for whether you really are saved or good with God, no one can be the judge of that, except God Himself. however, the only TRUE RELIGION is christianity. end of story. it's the religion behind believing what you need and having the right relationship with Jesus/God. so there ya are. the truth.

No religion is the best because they are all corrupt.\n\nNo religious group is the best . . . because they are all vain and self-centered.\n\nDo want to follow the best . . . follow what is in your heart and not what is taught.

The coolest thing about me is I am not a hypocrite who uses profanity and then says they are a good muslim.  Maybe if you actually read the Quran, you would know that.

same as any other group of ppl. some are good, some arent so good. christianity started out with the best of intentions, but theres always going to be flaws with stuff like that.

I don't think that I am too good & I should not think that I am the best of all.But as Allah Almighty has given all human beings some good qualities so if I think for myself,Allah Almighty has given me a quality that I never feel myself PERFECT & I always try to think positively.That's all I know.\nThanks,\nSumiya.

Every Religion is having a single Goal " Reach to that One God"\nSo every Religion is good for me.

I believe that worshiping God is worshiping good. \n\nAs a hypothetical, I love the spirit of your idea, but who would decide what good is?\n\nHaven't you ever known well-intentioned people who really have no appropriate sense of boundaries?  They think they're doing good.  They're going to help you if it kills you both....\n\nThe problem, as I see it, is that what is good is largely subjective.  That's one reason we need law.  \n\nAnd then there's the issue of enforcing "good."   Who would do that?\n\nIf everyone were moral and good, this world would be a better place.  We wouldn't need saving if we could reach perfection on our own.

There are some close seconds, but number one is being good.\n\nI don't know why. I thought it was because of all the wonderful things I could ultimately have, like being close to God, becoming a huge radiant being, having love and connection with all beings, and similar ambitions.\n\nBut, I realized the other day that if I had to deliberately wrong someone to better my own situation worldly or spiritually, I wouldn't do it, regardless of God's will. I fear that it's pride, and I wonder if it's something better than my selfish mind can grasp. I don't know.\n\nWould you tell us what your most important is?

Keep an open mind and learn from other religions.  if you really listen, you'll hear a lot of similarities.  if it is uncomfortable, stay away from the topic of religion and stick to the things that made you friends in the first place.  i think people will go to heaven if they are good and hell if they are not. no matter what philosophy you follow, there is always a basic belief or faith or values that keep you "good", regardless of religion.
