I don't believe my religion is the only one.  I believe that all true paths lead back to the same thing.  God can be called by any name and religion is pretty much cultural traditions to get back to him/her.\n\nI am a Christian Gnostic.

I agree and it's foolish where everyone claims they are the right way, "join us and be save"; "no salvation outside this church" and some other lying propaganda to feel superior among the rest of other religions. There's no truth in it because the only truth and way is Jesus Christ (John 14:6). God has religion I believe like it says in James1:\n27 Pure RELIGION and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. \nI think what God wants for us is to follow HIm his way not our own way.

It is seldom that we find a religion that gives us all the right answers. This is true with most everthing.  Remeber true religion is in your heart, and in the way that you and your maker comunicate.  Religion is NOT in the church you attend.  We try to find a Church that is closest to our beliefs so that we can associate with others who believe as we do.  No church or Religion should believe that theirs is the only way.  If we call our greater power GOD and they call Theirs UNCLE BUBBY its ok.  Think of the different words spoken internationally for every work in the english language,  is our word the right word for that item, or just one of your choices.\n\nHope this helps,  Have a Great Day

Jehovah's Witnesses are the only true Christians. True Christianity as practiced in the first century and by Jehovah's Witnesses rejects all the paganisms mentioned in your question.\n\n1. True Christianity draws its teachings exclusively from the bible, rather than from philosophy. Doctrines such as Trinity, hellfire, and immortality are not found in the bible.\n(Mark 7:7) It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach as doctrines commands of men.\n\n2. True Christianity works to make known God's personal name. No group has done more to advocate that name than Jehovah's Witnesses .\n(John 17:6) I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.\n\n3. True Christianity recognizes the active role of Christ as heavenly King NOW, not just as a storybook character in a manger or dying helplessly. Witnesses look to Jesus as their Head and King who is ruling in heaven already.\n(John 3:36) He that exercises faith in the Son has everlasting life; he that disobeys the Son will not see life\n\n4. True Christianity is not just formalism, but is a way of life for its adherents. Jehovah's Witnesses have a real reputation for honesty, integrity, and faith. Their worship shuns pageantry and sacerdotalisms.\n(Isaiah 1:15-17) Even though YOU make many prayers, I am not listening... Learn to do good; search for justice\n\n5. True Christianity is known by its members love for one another. Witnesses do not go to war, and do not take up arms against anyone much less members of their own religion.\n(John 13:35) By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.\n\n6. True Christianity is separate from the world. Unlike the clergy of Christendom, Jehovah's Witnesses remain neutral to human politics and nationalism, looking instead to God's Kingdom through Christ Jesus as the only solution for all mankind's problems.\n(John 15:19) Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you\n\n7. True Christians follow Jesus' command to preach. No religion has more prominently emphasized preaching by all its adherents around the globe.\n(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations

Jesus is the one true God. Some people think that he was just a prophet from God, but he actually died for our sins. I mean the Jews rejected him, but what he went through at the cross, no one would have survived a part of what he went through. I am a struggling christian I admitt it, I am, because I am just not use to all the things that we r suppose to obey. But I am learning slowly. Hey but at least I am still learning more and more about God that I thought I understood before. The Bible is all the proof you need. I would sudgest to get a New King James Version to help you understand the words a little. I even have trouble understanding it. Hey I'm 15 I can have an escuse to have a little trouble. ~LOL~ Also look at Probvers, Acts, and Revlations. They will tell you of how he died for you, what is coming for us in the rapture, and how we should act as christians. I hope you take of what I said into concideration.

The only true faith is faith in God.  Religion sucks.

Ok... so... is this the REALLY true religion?\n\nor is this the really, really true religion... or maybe this is the really true/truest religion.  Oh well... welcome to your new religion... I'm laying odds you'll recruit many new members.\n\nPersonally, I'd join, too... but you'd have to take the god part out of it.

Spiritual, don't think that's a "religion", but don't really like the thought of someone else telling me what to believe. I was raised hard-core catholic, catholic school, church twice a week, pray before every meal, and told that if I ever went against God, I would burn in Hell forever. Why would you want to be afraid of what you believe in? I believe in God, but not church, not Adam and Eve, not "religion".

Jesus was the most humble human to walk this earth, wouldn't you agree?  Yet he said that he came to bear witness to THE truth. (John 18:37)  He said he was THE way, THE truth, and THE life. (John 14:6)  He spoke quite clearly about there being NO other true religion than that of worshipping his Father, the only true God.  (Matthew 7:21-23; Psalm 83:18)\n\nGranted, people are not going to listen to pushy preachers, but if we feel we have "the truth" wouldn't it be a very selfish and haughty thing for us to keep it to ourselves?\n\nDo you believe there is only one true religion, the same one as was at the beginning of creation, or do you believe there are many roads to everlasting life?  (Matthew 7:13,14; John 17:3)

Islam is the only true religion.. it is not new, rather it is the only religion which all prophets of God taught, Adam, Noah, Moses, David, Jesus and Muhammed.. they all taught the same message which God is One, believe in Him and worship Him alone.. those prophets may have taught different laws and commandments, because those who those prophets were sent to were/are different.. the last laws which The God, or Allah -in Arabic- has willed for humanity are the Islamic laws which abrogated all the old commandments, like the Mosaic laws and the new laws which Jesus peace be upon him taught.. the commandments of Islam are uniquly suiting all men of all time, since Muhammed was the last messanger who God sent.. and since there will be no other prophets coming after him, and therefore no new laws to abrogate the Islamic laws.. and the Islamic laws may seem strict.. but when you give it more time, to see what Muslims scholars said about each laws.. and learn the wisdoms behind these laws, you may will come to see the big image.. which shows how The God knows exactly what we are in a need to, as you will see these laws perfect! .. \n\nPatience is the key to learn.. \n\npeace.

The truthfulness or the falsity of a religion lies in the eyes of the beholder.  To a Muslim, Islam is as true as Christianity is to a Baptist.  I am Muslim and I am a student at Baylor University (the biggest Baptist university in the world).  I don't doubt that my religion is true.  However, I do not doubt that a Hindu is as true to his religion as I am to mine, and feels the same way about his religion as I do.\n\nIf you believe that only one specific religion is true, then there is a huge problem you run into.  Let me outline it in simple terms:\n\n1. If God is Almighty and Gracious, then he loves all people equally and he believes in equality.\n2. If there is one true religion, then one religion is better than the other.\n3. If one religion is better than the other, than the followers of this one true religion are closer to God than any other religion.  Therefore,  some people are closer to God than the others simply because they worship some TRUE religion.\n4.  However, if God loves someone more than someone else simply because they were born in a different religion, then God is not fair. \n5.  If God is not fair, can He be Almighty?  \n\nThus, in my humble opinion, it doesn't matter what religion you follow.  As long as you are a moral being, you will attain nirvana, heaven, salvation, or whatever you want to call it.  \n\nGod is not a human.  Thus, he is not limited by human words such as Islam, Christianity, or Jew.  God is beyond all words, beyond all reality and beyond all knowledge.  Thus, it would be an insult to His greatness to claim to know something, anything, about his nature.  All we can know is this: "He is the perfect being beyond whom nothing greater / more perfect can be thought of" (Anselm).  \n\nAll we can do is acknowledge his perfection.  We all do it in different ways in our human language.  God is beyond human language and thus, I don't think he would be involved in such debates as who is from what religion.\n\nJust my two cents.

because I don't believe in religion of any kind. \n\nIt's all a personal choice you have to find the answers you're looking for on your own. I found my and it has nothing to do with any sort of organized religion.

I think all religions are fundamentally the same.  All religions arose out of trying to explain the unexplainable.

I think you've been looking at these religions like fads.  I'm Catholic and regard the teachings of my religion as the true Christian way.  \nI believe in my religion's teachings even if some Church leaders don't anymore. (some unnacceptable groups of people were allowed to become leaders and make some F-ed up changes back in the 60's)\n\nMaybe you just aren't looking for truth, but somewhere you feel accepted in.  \n\nAcceptance isn't worth much if the religion is a fake on, so I decided to look for truth.
