What i want to know(from religious people) is why are these big three very modern monotheistic religions the true ones?
What about the many polytheistic religions which died out long before them? If those ancient religions are not believed anymore because they died with the civilisations which created them then who's to say the modern religions which are followed today won't just die out(i'm pretty sure they will) and newer religions possibly take over? Maybe even polytheistic ones again.They can't all be right.Are there many gods or just one? I believe that the new religions we have today are just as relevant as the ancient ones which are no longer followed.If they were not the real ones then it is much more plausable to believe that non of them are real.They are all equal in my eyes. |
LT opened this thread because he's searching for a deeper meaning to life. I personally told you I'm on a journey too if you want deeper answers speak to a pastor that has 30 years plus experience.:blush:

So it suggests to me that religions basically believe the same things and therefore the fact they "all claim their god is the only true one" (which i must ask, is that even true LT? as far as i'm aware, religious books claim that their god is the only god that should be worshiped) is down to different cultures having different versions and slightly different rules to follow. |

Maybe most of these religions are the same ideas but evolved. We don't poo in the garden anymore as plumbing evolved too. Or as the early instances of plumbing were so unhygienic should we toss the whole system out and declare it doesn't work? Quote:

Take Hinduism for example.A modern polytheistic religion.If the religious people who are more open minded and tolerant of other religions believe that all religions are a path to the same god then what do they say about Hinduism a religion of many gods.There lies a contradiction.There can't be only one god but also many.

Religion and faith are two completely different things though.
Religion itself is responsible for pretty much all the hate and mass death going on in the world at the moment. Faith never hurt anybody - the feeling of faith to a God doesn't need to be a physical entity in front of you. It just needs to be something that brings you personal comfort and reassurance. |

RE was my favourite subject at school lol |
Religion isn't.
Extremist murderers using religions as excuses causes the hate and mass death. |

There cannot be only one god but also many gods? |

I'm not a belieber myself but I can appreciate and respect other's views. But people who believe that people need to die because they don't fit into their own religious ideology, such as gay people, other faiths etc is where the difference lies - in my opinion. |
