No. My religion cannot save me. But the God I worship can save me.

I believe people's good work and honesty give good result in life rather than which religion s/he belong too. When a child birth, they automatacally follow their parents, family or surrounding culture as well as religion. So, the religion s/he is in is default for them regardless their judgement and unawareness. When a person give knowledge about a particular religion, oviously it become superior than other religion to him or her. So, religion is not the thing that save us but our good deeds will save us :-) Being a good, respectful, kind, ture and helpful fellow in this world is the key to save us !

Religion is suppose to show the way to be saved. No one knows if it will or not but I do know many have found great comfort and benefit from their religion. I think we will get out of it as much as we put into it.

I totally disagree with this belief by some who believes that when they pass away, they have to worry about because of what their religion says. I know one religion that actually believes such inane intuition but for my safety I am not gonna say it here for it might cause any untoward concerns later on. I have a considerable respect for them, for their perceptions and beliefs, one can't really blame them for being so.

I am a Roman Catholic yet I don't believe that my religion can save me. I guess my relationship with God matters most. What is religion if you don't even pray? Yet even you pray a lot but your attitude towards other people is harsh and bad, you will not be save also. For me, my belief in God helps me to have a constant communication with Him. And in doing so, I am guided to do good towards others. I am not perfect though, I don't even know if I will be save. It's God who will judge our doings here on earth.

Religion is a tool towards a God-centered life. When you belong to a religious sector or denomination you are taught how to have Faith, Trust and Love in God for religion can't save you only God can. The person you debated with is a fanatic, he is brainwashed by their teaching for no religion is superior or inferior to the rest. Love one another as God loves you is the primary teaching of any religion; there are variations on teaching how to be Christlike in thought and action but the teaching is the same. I am a Catholic and all Christians are my brothers and sisters in Faith.
