which religion is the best?

I really like that answer there..Were you always this way..'humanist' or did you originally start within a structured religion?

i would definitely disagree on what you said that religion does far more damage than good. but im not gonna elaborate why cause that would sound like im imposing my opinion on you. i just dont agree. plain and simple. i agree on what you said that humanist have more morality than religious folk. im not a religious person either but i could see people who are so devoted in their religion that they tend to justify their bad deeds. i am a christian and my relationship with him is a personal thing and i dont believe him not because my religion requires me to believe on Him!

you r right that each person will find a religion....but what iam thinking is why there are a lot of religions when there is only one god?u said u were called to study shamanism...do u think shamanism will be agreed by all people?answer me friend will the number of religions overtake the population of our country?

thank you friend for the topic i'm muslim and i'm prove to be we share a lot of things with christians and jewish relegion the Islam said that there is one relegion the christ and jewish and islam are just names of one relegion we all believe in one god. the islam came to complete christian relegenion and jewish relegion and of course islam is not a relegion of violence and terrost as some people think the word islam means peace in arabic take care my friend

aaslin, I think there are many paths to one God. I think that throughout history when a person or a people did not find the path set out for them by a religious group to be for him/her/them, then another religion or a path that deviated from the religion that was there before came along or developed. I think that some religions incorporate other religions over time and some can not. There are many religions in my country, America. I think that every one has a little piece of the puzzle. Take care

Religion is an exceedingly personal matter and I'm with you when you point out that no single religion can claim to be the best. At best, religion can only be the best religion for the person who professes that peculiar belief. I've meet Buddhist who have become Christian because they needed to believe in the idea of God as a forgiving being. I've met Christians who have become Buddhist because they felt at peace with the teachings of Buddhism. In both cases it was not a case of the religion being wrong but different religions fulfilling a need that was peculiar to the individual.

My father's name is Dad! Do you call your dad by his first name? To do so would disrespect him so he is just Dad unless I am being chastizes then it is Father as in "Forgive me father.". Such as with my earthly dad my heavenly dad forgives and forgets with the same enthusiasm that my brother, His Son, (Jesus/Yashua) did, "Your sins are forgiven! Go and sin no more!" Does that mean that if I do sin again that I am going to hell and the forgivness is null and void? Not at all. What it does mean is although everyone sins I do not INTENTIONALLY sin, I do not go and do whatever I want knowing that I will be forgiven, I try never to sin but if I do make a mistake Dad is right there waiting for me to appologize to him and myself since my sin not only hurts him but me as well. Here is a way to think about it. Think of the very best dad in this world, the most perfect father. Ward Cleaver (leave it to beaver), Mahatma Ghandi (he was the Father of a movement), Mike Brady (the Brady Bunch), etc... No how do you think these fathers / dads would act towords their children that have made a mistake? Would they punish their children forever? Of course they would not!! Then how much better would your Heavenly Father, who can see inside your heart, be towords a mistake? Especially when you come to him with a repentant heart? Anyways I have pratered on enough so I will close and post this. I await you reply. Have a great day!!!

my friend u agree with the fact that there is a god...but in what name do u call him if u dont belong to any religion?all religions say we'll be punished for our sins...do u think ur god will forgive u unless u dont do any sins?

what you said is pretty interesting.i didnt know such religion exist well i should admit that im kinda ignnorant on this topic. ^-^
