In the end its man who chooses what is right or wrong and so religion is there to help people and guide them.

I believe all (or at least most) are 'true'. I don't think that there can be any one religious spiritual path that can be right for everyone, not when you consider how unique everybody is. Everyone has different needs, therefore everyone should have the right to choose whatever path they feel fits them best.

Yes, Christianity is the one true religion. That may sound awfully dogmatic and narrow-minded, but the simple truth is that Christianity is the only true religion. Jesus said that He alone was the way to the Father (John 14:6), that He alone revealed the Father (Matt. 11:27; Luke 10:22). Christians do not go around saying Christianity is the only way because they are arrogant, narrow-minded, stupid, and judgmental. They do so because they believe what Jesus said. They believe in Jesus, who claimed to be God (John 8:58; Exodus 3:14), who forgave sins (Mark 2:5; Luke 5:20; 7:48), and who rose from the dead (Luke 24:24-29; John 2:19f). Jesus said that He was the only way. Jesus is unique. He was either telling the truth, He was crazy, or He was a liar. But since everyone agrees that Jesus was a good man, how then could He be both good and crazy, or good and a liar? He had to be telling the truth. He is the only way.
Christianity is not just a religion; it is a relationship with God. It is a trusting in Jesus and what He did on the cross (1 Cor. 15:1-4), not on what you can do for yourself (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Buddha didn't rise from the dead, nor did Confucius or Zoroaster. Muhammad didn't fulfill detailed prophecy. Alexander the Great didn't raise the dead or heal the sick. And though there is far less reliable information written about them, they are believed in.
The scripture is right when it says in 1 Pet. 2:7-8, "This precious value, then, is for you who believe. But for those who disbelieve, 'The stone which the builders rejected, this became the very corner stone,' and, 'A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense'; for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were also appointed." (NASB).

The Mathematical Odds of Jesus Fulfilling Prophecy

"The following probabilities are taken from Peter Stoner in Science Speaks (Moody Press, 1963) to show that coincidence is ruled out by the science of probability. Stoner says that by using the modern science of probability in reference to eight prophecies, ‘we find that the chance that any man might have lived down to the present time and fulfilled all eight prophecies is 1 in 10 to the 17power." That would be 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000. In order to help us comprehend this staggering probability, Stoner illustrates it by supposing that "we take 10 to the 17power silver dollars and lay them on the face of Texas. They will cover all of the state two feet deep. Now mark one of these silver dollars and stir the whole mass thoroughly, all over the state. Blindfold a man and tell him that he can travel as far as he wishes, but he must pick up one silver dollar and say that this is the right one. What chance would he have of getting the right one? Just the same chance that the prophets would have had of writing these eight prophecies and having them all come true in any one man."
Stoner considers 48 prophecies and says, "we find the chance that any one man fulfilled all 48 prophecies to be 1 in 10 to the 157power, or 1 in 10,00,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 000,000,000."

(This information was taken from the book Evidence that Demands a Verdict, by Josh McDowell.)

The estimated number of electrons in the universe is around 10 to the 79power. It should be quite evident that Jesus did not fulfill the prophecies by accident. He was who He said He was: the only way (John 14:6).

No there is not. And people who claim theirs is the "one true religion" are what cause hate and violence in the world.

Yes and it is beleiving in Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior of the world. Who has shown more love than he by dying on the cross as the ultimate sacrifice for mans sins. By believing in him you can have eternal life (for your soul that is). He doesn't give you eternal life and then take it away once you commit another sin. However, he expects you to live right and to humbly ask for forgiveness once you commit sin. Because we are all sinful creatures. This is the truth. Oh an dthe King James Holy Bible is as close to the original scripts as the other Bibles distributed.

well very first do some soul searching when asking religion what exactly one means when saying religion. dose that mean a system as directed by prophets to follow. or directions of god how to live life or a belief system followed by group of people we label them with certain religion.
If god have directed to live alife than definitely he can not tell things completely opposite in different religion as this will make his children fight in each other.and if prophets like Jesus (you will feel lot of respect if you are christen by only listening the name )or Mohamed who are so respected how do we claim that only one of them is right.
Also how do you define truth as, what today is truth dosen,t remain truth tomorrow. take the case of cars witch are our best companion as God as our spouse but try to go in future if global warming continues at this pace this will be our first enemy. in no time. similarly the war in Iraq was a just war for USA as advertise (i am not a Muslim nor an Arab) but Truth it has turned to be biggest mistake.
So can i say, truth simply means, witch never changes, for instance.
1=god.He was thousand of years ago and will remain.
2=nature =fire air.water.earth.sky. remain always.
3=time. its keep on repeating daily and seasons after seasons.
4=soul. as our body die we keep coming in cycle.
so if simply when we speak or say religion that means it should be eternal by one god and same to all the soul applicable for all the season. do you know any religion witch have all this element.
answer is NO. simply because all the religion want to sell only and only their products.All the religion of our world will sell you their belief calming to make you happy .calming to make you peaceful calming you to make blissful. calming to make you. a honest person. So shouden,t i say the true religion of god is to practice. Honesty Purity.Truth.peace.bliss.Love.etc. is 't that all the teachings and all the story will point out to these value. indirectely or directely.

The only evidence based religion is Islam and it should be the only true one. It is the religion of science and knowledge and people have free choice but are accountable for this freedom.

All religions are not true!
Most worship other gods like the sun god(Deut.4:19; 17:3; Gal.4:8-10); Ishtar for Easter and Cupid for St. Patrick's & so on.
Others do their own interpetation instead of God's to deceive people to lead them away from the Bible and Jesus.
Others also might have some truth mixed in with some error.

(Prov.14:12; Eph.4:14; Matt.7:13; 1John 4:1 & etc.)

Most are following the Beast of Revelation and not Jesus!
(Rev.13:3; 14:8-9; Phil.2:21)

It seems that you never read (Luke 4:4; Matt.7:21-23) your Bible and studied(2Tim.2:15) other religions??
****************************************************************
In the Bible; it only speaks of one faith that is true!
Eph.4:4-5 = "There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling: One Lord, one faith, one baptism."
Eph.5:27 = "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish."
Acts 20:28 = "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood."

im reading these questions and it really saddens me..... it truly does. i know that no matter what i say or quote..... people(including you probably) are going to tell me Im wrong and dumb etc etc etc.... and im not answering these questions for a best answer because i dont care about that...... what I do care about is letting people know the truth. I go to a Christian school and there isnt much chance to share my faith there but here.....chances are everywhere...... all this to say: Jesus is Lord.

"We know what real love is because Christ gave up His life for us." 1 John 3:16

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only son so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16


" I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father EXCEPT through me." John 14:6

Jesus is the ONLY way. He can give you everything you need. It is so amazing that He loves us that much. We are like a grain of sand...and yet He loved us enough to send his Son to die for us! check it out......and God Bless!

Your question is exactly why religion should be GONE...We can all believe as we wish in a higher being without the rigors of a "system" that controls how we do that. I can give you a site to check and I'll bet you won't think it's a true religion despite it being one...We're the Uncommon Denomination check us out at WWW.UUA.ORG...no bible to thump, no crosses to bear, etc...really...
