Christianity and Islam both claim to be the One True Faith and that all other spiritual expressions are False and Paths to Damnation. Isn't this just a bit extreme? Almost no other religions in the world make such fanatical claims. I don't include Judeaism because they don't loudly say such things these days. But, I bet they did in the olde days. Can't really blame them. They kept getting conquered by all sorts of unsavory folks. I can see how this can make a culture develop a 'the oppressors shall be punished' mentality. But, back to the real topic. If all humans, all over the world, have a spiritual side to their being and have religions to express this, how can any one single religion be the One True Religion? I think it's absurd. What do you think?
