Christians aren't better than other religious people. It is the Christian God we believe to be better than any other "god".
If you believe something to be right, then things that contradict what you believe to be "right", you must believe they are "wrong". No matter what the subject.
If you don't believe anything is "right", then you have no beliefs at all.
Examples:
A person who believes evolution is "right", must believe the 6 days of creation described in the Bible is wrong.
A person who believes there is no God, must believe that all the people who say there is a God are wrong.
Your question says everyone has a belief. Yes, everyone has some things they believe to be right, true, and correct. By accepting these things, these people automatically state that the things contrary to this view are not right, false and incorrect.
Christians believe the God of the Bible is what he claims to be, tho only true and living God. This being said, we believe any other "god" is not-true and non-living. If we don't reject the opposite of our view, then we don't truly believe what we claim to affirm.

I dont believe I am better than anyone else though I do believe Jesus is. Christianity, has the most evidence in favor of it being truthful. Mostly everyone has a belief, thats true, but we cannot ALL be right, and if we are, then Christianity is STILL right. Id much rather follow a religion with more evidence for it than one with little or no evidence.

The Bible had over 40 writers, 1600 years to make, 3 continents 72 books 3 languages YET it flows smoothly and collectively w/ ONE central them of salvation through the messiah (Jesus). How can you explain all these authors to deliver a collective masterpiece w/out the Guidance of God> It has PROPHECY, supported by archeology, best translated and preserved ancient text. Unlike other sacred books it has a clear beg. middle, and end. The bible confirms the torah. YET, the Koran isn't true since it contradicts The Bible which it is based on!!

The Bible has alot of historical evidence to back up many of the stories it contains. Most religions do not go back 5000 years nor do they have such a strong historical presence. Much of the eschatology in the bible is fairly simple to understand and offers evidence that certain predictions made have come to pass. Perhaps you would like to show us evidence from another religion that can be compared that of the New and Old Testament.

just to quickly point out a HUGE flaw in your reasoning and as a quick defense for Christianity, I don't think you should say that Christians are the only ones to think they are right. i think almost every religion claims to be THE ONE. maybe you just cant read any language other than english , so u don't know what the Muslims are saying in Arabic, or the Hindus in hindi? Besides , people don't only post their beliefs on Websites. Am i right? Maybe the Muslims are too busy outside killing Christians for not believing in Allah, to design a pretty website for you to look at.

I am not a religious person but I do believe in Jesus. Religion, all religions are man made. They have rules and regulations that are made by a sect of people that others follow. I follow the Bible. I know because I have had a personal walk with Jesus for a long time now. He is continually near me through the Holy Spirit. I have seen miracles happen through the name of Jesus. I have seen people get healed through the name of Jesus. I myself have been healed through the name of Jesus. This is why. I love my Sweet Lord so much and will never depart from Him.

Is their any other so-called "religion" that says this:
(John 14:6) Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
And another thing: Christianity isn't a "religion". It's a relationship with our Savior!

In every other religion people are not forgiven for their sins they have to work towards it and even still they are not even guaranteed that they will get into heaven. In Christianity there is a living God (Jesus) who conquered death by dying on the cross so that anyone who believes in God will have eternal life in heaven. No other religion had a God that conquered death. In Christianity you don't make yourself go to heaven by doing good deeds you go to heaven because of what Jesus did for you. Other religions aren't necessarily bad but Christianity is quite unique in these aspects.

Because I believe my saviour died for my sins, so that I would no longer be seperated by God, do you think we can go to heaven the way we are, this world is full of evil and destruction, only through The Lord can we move on to a kingdom of Love and peace, we can't take anger, jealousy, greed, materialism, riches to a kingdom such as this. Jesus was sacrificed so that those who believe have a chance for redemption.

Good question. Some Christians do ostracise other religions and have a "I'm Holy" attitude and aura about them. Not all Christians. I've met some very good Christians in my day.
They are just like any other group of people: A few winners, and a *whole lot* of losers.
