I have spoken to people from lots of different faiths, and asked them all the same question,
"How do you know your God is the right one, what do you think will become of you if one of the other major world religions were right all along"?
Surely only one of you can be right, I ask of Christians, what if you're wrong and it's Allah you're going to be facing, or the Jewish people were right and there was no Jesus? And for Muslims, what if the Christians are right, where does that leave you after a lifetime of following the wrong faith?
And the only answer I ever get is, "I know it's the right one because I do". And for me that's not good enough (I'm not religious obviously).
Some religions are exclusive too, and if you're not a member of their gang you're doomed. How can that be right when there are so many different faiths in the world?
Lets just hope it's the Buddhists who've got it right, because Siddhartha is so forgiving he'll let us have another crack at it ;o)
