You are not making any sense.

Absolutely. Let others find a religion if they want to. It's all about faith, you either have it or you don't. Its a waste to try to convince somebody. I will never believe in a higher being for example.

You hit the nail on the head! That's why so many religious wars and atrosities. Some people hide behind religion and the whole focus is on other people. Anyone can find things wrong with others.

Well, you are partially correct. First off each follower is to deal with His or Her own issues before others issues are to be dealt with. Next though we need to come up close to those people who are struggling and help them out. That means finding people who have gone through the same issues, people who are going through those same issues, and those who will follow you through those same issues.
What is needed overall are people helping people - not being counselors or psychologists. But, brothers and sisters who come up along others just to help one another out in this world.

Yes it would. I just got two emails. One from a "Bible thumper" explaining how my question was terrible and telling me I was going to hell for being a Catholic and the other was an atheist questioning another answer and asking if God, then, made a mistake that Jesus had to fix. Why can't we just learn from each other and stop annoying each other?

Believers are commanded to spread the Good News. This is the Great Commission.

You figure it out.
Jesus said: Go forth and preach working on your own salvation?
Brillant.
Some people should. No doubt.

No, that wouldn't be enough to make the world a better place.

Better? Hard to say. Less annoying? Quite possibly.

I'd certainly like to see people work harder to make up for our mistakes than they do to find someone to blame for making them.
