Dear Believers: why would those who haven't the same beliefs as yours follow a "wrong way"?

Answer 1

What is right to one person can be wrong to another. If you are taught something from birth you are likely to embrace it. We are creatures of habit.

Answer 2

There is no wrong way, everyone makes the choice that is right for them, some living entities choose a spiritual path, others may choose a more worldly path, both groups understand that the ultimate destination may be different, by choosing a spiritual path and experiencing the happiness this choice brings, I enjoy trying to share the joy of this path with others, at the same time I understand that this path is not for everyone and if an individual chooses another path, then I sincerely wish them as much happiness on their path as I am experiencing on mine.

Answer 3

First, what is the definition of "Believer"? There are many types of believers, so for one to be able to answer the question, you would have to tell us what you mean by believer. In general, I guess anyone who "believes" that whatever pathway he/she is on is the right one for him or her, then no matter where that pathway was taking him/her it would be the "right" one for that person, according to them. They may or may not think that others not sharing that path were going the wrong way; many believe that it matters not which path you choose, if it's right for you then it's right!! I suppose that some may feel that their pathway is right and all others are wrong... They may be right, they may be wrong? who knows??? Anyway, assuming for a minute, there is a "wrong way", why would anyone want to go that way? They could be deceived, believing some lies... they could be forced to by someone stronger... they could be just trusting their peer group without thinking for themselves... lots of reasons I guess. Of course then we are consequently thrust into the place of the origin of morality... why is something right? why is something wrong??? What is the basis for believing in those things at all? Where did that come from??? Even if we decide to believe in the "G" guy.... who is he" who or what religion has it right???? Me, I'm going with the one who healed masses of people, turned water into wine, fulfilled over 300 prophecies written hundreds of years before he was born, and then after we had nailed him to a cross where he died, rose from the grave... And if that makes me a believer, at least I know who I believe in. He explained it this way, "Broad is the way and easy that leads to destruction; Narrow and difficult is the way that leads to life" One of those ways sounds right to me and one sounds wrong... but maybe that's just me being brainwashed.... crazy, addled whatever.... or maybe believing in him and what he said is the key to life...

Answer 5

I never said they follow the wrong way. It might be the "wrong way" for ME to follow, maybe bcoz it's just not appealing to me, but for others, it cna be the RIGHT way, and that's fine with me. If Muslims do their religious prayers, I don't oppose that. I do something else religious, that is similar but not wuite the Muslim prayer thing... so it aint WRONG jsut different

Answer 6

Most believers don't seem to know the difference between belief and knowledge, and how to tell one from the other.

Answer 7

Bcoz they got themselves kill in the hell. I do not say i'm right about religion. But most people do not have any guts to find out about religion. They most likely to spend their time to believe what they believe. They don't want to find out. As a result, they are walking in a false path which will guide them to the hell.

Answer 8

There is no wrong way to God. The paths may be labelled differently, but the spiritual goal is the same.

Answer 9

It might be the teaching of ones religion that makes us think that others are at wrong..
