There's high probability that you would choose my answer as the Best Answer if i agreed with you. However i ain't interested in the points. So i shall answer yur question with upmost honesty using the following analogy:



There are 6 sides to a dice. Let's use each side to represents a particular religion. If Religion-A has a similar doctrine to Religion-B then these 2 religions will share the same side. Hence let’s assume that all 6 sides are covered.



Worldly people & religious fanatics have limited time & patience, hence they normally practices a particular religious faith. For this group of people, they only see one side of the dice and in turn they would strongly proclaim that it’s a square! And yes, they are actually correct. But only partially!



On the other hand,there's another group which comprises of Great Swamis, Sufis, Saints, Rishis & Monks who actually don't commit to one religious faith. Instead they spend their whole life studying and contemplating on all religious scriptures to determine the HOLY Truth. It is through this process that the Great Swamis, Sufis, Saints, Rishis & Monks are able to see the whole cube with the help of the 6 squares.



Therefore no religion can be labelled as the best or true religion because each religion only holds one part of the HOLY puzzle. It's only when all the 6 sides come together to form a cube, then the HOLY TRUTH/GRAIL becomes visible to the observer's mind!

I think the belief that there is "one true religion" is one of the greatest issues of mankind. When you look at the history of the world, and the hundreds of cultures that are still around today, you'll see that religions are just as various and plentiful as languages. Is there one "true language" sent by God?



I think each culture has the choice of how it views God, or whether it believes in one god or many gods, and each culture has the power of creating and accepting its own Holy book. In the modern world, we lose sight of how many faiths there are because there are just a small set of "mainstream" religions that have been taken up by a majority of the world (Christianity, Islam, Judeism, Buddhism, Hindu).



I believe that the origins of the universe and answers of the soul and so forth are questions that are beyond our earthly reach, so religion is each culture's "best guess" at what those answers are. And there is nothing wrong with that- every unproven theory in science, like the big bang and superstring theory, is really just a "best guess" based on what can be seen, heard, and felt.



But religion has been the cause of so much hate and conflict because people put a frightening amount of faith and belief in their religion. Faith and belief are wonderful things when you keep them within you and among your fellow believers, but once people feel compelled to go straighten the rest of the world out and make them see the world the way they see it, I think it's one of humanity's uglier faces.



So my answer is, if there was one religion sent by God, I'm sure he would have sent it to everyone loud and clear. Unfortunately, if you ask around, it seems God sent a bunch of different peoples of the Earth a bunch of conflicting stories, and that seems very cruel and unusual to me. So I think that, if there is a God, he or she is letting us decide how to handle those tough questions on our own.



So I would ask that you consider rephrasing your question, and instead ask which religion seems right for you. And always allow people their right to decide for themselves what faith speaks to them the most. I think the world would be a kinder, safer place if people took that approach.



And I was very pleased to see so many awesome answers posted for this question. I was really afraid the majority would just shout out their religion point-blank end of discussion, which is insulting and ignorant to the rest of the world, but luckily that was only a small minority. That gives me some hope that people are lightening up a bit. :)

There is no one true religion. Infact, there are few (if any) absolute truths to anything.



Each religion has validity and truth to it, which it is given by its followers. Examine yourself thoroughly. Look inside your heart to find out what your feelings are. Use your mind to think critically about all you've been told. If your heart and your mind tell you that this is the right religion for you, then you've found your truth for the time being.



Personal truths change as we learn and grow. What may be the perfect religion for you now may not be as you progress through life. Re-examine yourself periodically to make sure that the religion you are following is still the right one for you. If it isn't, take stock again of your heart and your mind and look for something else that suits you better.



This doesn't just go for religion, I recommend this for EVERYTHING in life.



Good luck.

A True - Religion is your constant guide in matters of Mind and Body, providing a reason to meditate and search within and without, to establish relationship with all members of your family,community,country and all creations on Earth; also with Angels,all the Holy Books,all the Holy Prophets,all the saints and seers; reminding you with each breath that we are from God,for God,and,a return to God is the home-coming. A true-religion does not debar you from adopting any career for your vocation...

The only True Faith, not religion is to believe on the Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of Man and the resurrected Son of God who died for our sins. None other has paid the full price for man's redemption from sin except God's Son. Read John in the New Testement for more understanding on the True relegion.

True religion is one that worships the one true God Jehovah ins spirit and truth (ps 83:18) and exercises faith in his ransom sacrifice - Jesus Christ (John 3:16,36). Also those of true christianity obey all of God's commandments of which are not burdensome such as preaching the good news of the kingdom (Matthew 24:14). A quality true christians must have is love because of love, all will know that they are Jesus' disciples

I've answered a similar question about religion. As I've said in there, religion is a way of life. There is no true religion. Men could go on tackling about this subject, but it will never be resolved...because there is no true religion. Your way of life will tell you what you religion is, what to believe, and how to be happy with the life you're living.

hello! actually all the religions are true. u might be influenced by the book u read in which it was written that islam is the true religion.u must not have observed that all the basic principles in all the religious are same. its god who made us .so it does not matter whether we call him by the name allah or krishna or jesus. it is we humans who made these religions and it is we who r responsible for all the religious conflicts going on inthe world. so,hey!!!!! take a chill pill and relax coz god is great and we can call him by any name

That is very poor evidence. It does not hold up under any kind of scrutiny.



I believe that there are many valid paths to God. Islam can be a valid path to God, but it is not right to deny that other people of other religious paths cannot make it to God.

When a religion tells u, that it believes in all esle GOD sent religions, and u find it carrying all the respect for them, and u find it, so complementary, and so merciful, and when u find it, speaking to ur mind, heart and soul, so reasonable, carring a true peacful message in it's deep, when it's guiding, and u find no esle religion after.

Don't u think this is the true one.

ONE Faith, Many Religions -





There are many religions (as an example - Gal.1:13 below), but one faith (Eph.4:5 below).





Eph.4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,





When we are baptized into Christ by the Holy Spirit we BECOME a “new creature” (2 Cor.5:17, Gal.6:15 below). We become, individually, as well as collectively, the living body of Christ (Col.1:24 below). We become the church of God (1 Cor.10:32 below, 1 Cor.1:2, 1 Cor.15:9, Gal.1:13), the one faith (Eph.4:5 above).





2 Cor.5:17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he IS a new creature (Gal.6:15 below): old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.



Gal.6:15For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature (2 Cor.5:17 above).





Col.1:24Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for His body's sake, which IS the church (1 Cor.10:32, Gal. I:13, 1 Cor.1:2).





1 Cor.10:32Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God (Eph.2:16 below).





Eph.2:16 And that he might reconcile BOTH (Jew and Gentile - 1 Cor.10:32 above) unto God in one body (the church of God - 1 Cor.10:32 above) by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:





Gal.1:13For ye have heard of my (Paul's) conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God (1 Cor.10:32 above), and wasted it.

One mark of the true religion is that it has true love between its members and for others. So anyone claiming to be a certain faith who goes off to war automatically violates that principle. That indicates, then, that Catholicism isn't the true faith, nor is Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and numerous others that have had members join the military and go off to war.

See James 1:27 for a Christian definition:



"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows (ie. those in great need) in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."

True religion is to serve mankind with a pure heart and without expecting material gains for oneself. Religion teaches us to serve God and serving mankind is serving God.
2006-03-22 03:55:17 UTC
Hinduism,Buddhism,Jainism,Christianity and Islam

Not necessarirly in that order...But a note of caution:Technicaly Hinduism despite its multitude of Gods is not a religion but a way of ife
2006-03-22 03:42:06 UTC
For me personally, i believe in Jesus.



Actually, i think where men got it wrong was persecution of other religions.



To me, Religion is a very personal matter.



Having faith is the most important message.

there are a lot of religions out there in this world, but there is only ONE way to heaven, and its through Jesus Christ. i dont believe in islam because i dont understand how a god can be so uncaring that you have to go sacrifice yourself by killing christians. alah (or however you spell it) never did anything for his "people" like in this one newespaper, it said about a woman who had two sons. she sed that she raised them to serve allah, and then one day she put dynamite on them and sent them to a jewish village. there, they blew themselves up along with ten jews. i also wonder why the mother didnt go blow herself up, but her sons? i just no that the sons will be surprised to see, not allah on the throne, but Jesus Christ.

Well you can learn about them all, many books that simply explain them and where they come from, and then you decide and try to convince the people you care about and let everyone else be.
