Jesus said he was the ONLY way to God, therefore the conception that there are many ways to God are false.

Gah! Do you even listen to yourself?! It's true because someone said so... that's it?! Because someone said so?! Here's some of your horribly flawed logic right back atcha, then. I say it's all bs. Therefore it is. Ah ah ah, I said it, it's true. Can't deny it, it's even in writing, look! Now go live a damn life in the real world.

Not everyone belives jesus was real. Your asking a question and trying to control the answer based on your religon. I could just as easily say, Joe said he was the ONLY way to the 5 gods, therefore the conception that there is only one way to god is false.

Every religion isn't worshiping the same God, but I have heard this statement before too. Some worship more than one God. The people who say that want to make everyone under one religion to make everyone feel okay or welcomed. It is just not true.

it's an acceptance thing. the Muslims also believe in Jesus, but as a prophet. there would be more holy wars if we didn't all have the same God. They would be spurred by the Gods and not by man. While holy wars exist, they seem to be participated in only by members of different sects of the same religion. The crusades are over.

Many religions, Christianity, Islam & Judeism, have ties with each other. These religions believe in only one God. They speak about a lot of the same people including Abraham, Moses and Jesus. A lot of people don't educate themselves about religious history. I don't claim to know everything but I hope this helps.

I prefer to believe that all religions worship the same face/aspect of God, but often call him/her/it by different names. If only everyone thought this way, there would be much less war and violence in the world, and many fewer sins committed against each other "in God's name."
I find that many people who say "their religion is the only right one" conveniently forget the "judge not . . ." part of their texts.
Live and love with compassion and understanding. That's what most religions follow. Too bad not all followers practice this.

There is only ONE God! I think your question and your viewpoint are two different things- just because you believe there is only one way to God does not mean that people who believe differently than you are worshipping a different God entirely. Only one God, and I also believe essentially only one way to God, but I still believe that other religions are worshipping the very same God as you and I, because there is ONLY ONE! We just go about it differently (even if you believe everyone else is wrong). Just my viewpoint. It's okay to try to be openminded of other's beliefs.

Who told you that Jesus is the only way to God? Did you know that Jesus believed that a person should pray directly to God? He felt that the best way to pray was to go to a quiet place and commune with god on a one-to-one basis.
Where and when did he say people should pray to him?? That would have been blasphemy.

actully as a muslim we belive that all the prophet and messengers all belived in the same God. the one and only TRUE GOD .. that dosnt die, that dosnt walk on earth, that created you and me, that dosnt need to be born through a woman, dosnt pray to him self when he is on a cross dieing (which he didnt die). it is the same God that has mercy and forgivness on us that he sends soo many people to be guided by him. that is Allah.. the one and only Allah. he is not a statue with a big belly .. he is not a tree, or a cough drop.. he is the one that created this world and you .. tell me how a man can create another man? tell me how a man can create a star? tell me how a man can heal a mute or a blind man but he can not save him self while nailed to a cross as he is praying to him self ? there is a higher power then Jesus , yes Jesus was the ONLY way To God/ that is Allah,. but humans have swiched it to Jesus is the only way to him (Jesus as being GOD) the only way to God Now. Is through is teaches of the Quran and the exsample of phrophet muhammad pbuh.

So, you're saying that there are more than one ghod(tm)?
That makes sense.
So if that's the case, why do YOU think you are worshipping the correct one? What is Vishnu is the correct one? Or Odin?
You'd really piss them off by worshipping a false one don't you think?
