Santeria is the greatest - and I DARE you to disagree. Don't forget to send me a sample of your hair when you disagree with me.

The Abrahamic faiths, Christianity, Islam and Judaism, comprise over a third of the world's population. The Vedic faiths, Buddhism and Hinduism, comprise almost a quarter. These five belief systems or faiths are the largest of the religions in terms of adherents. Which faith is better is a specific question best answered by each individual. And a full quarter of the world's population doesn't subscribe to any of these five Abrahamic and Vedic faiths, as they subscribe to something else entirely. So, which faith is best? Obviously, for each it's their own.

All religions are great. The problem is how people use religion for political gain. Any religion. One of my work buddies, who is Muslim (I am Christian), had a great quote: "The world's three major religions are 95% similar. (Don't kill others, love others, don't steal, etc.) Why are people preoccupied with the 5% DIFFERENCE????"
People judge each other and say that their religion is the only true religion. People that believe even anything else will not go to a better place in the afterlife. People forget that it is God's job to judge, not ours...

All of them are great! guess what, they all come from the same GOD and have the same belief. However, Judaism was there before Christianity, so Christianity is more up to date and Islam is more up to-date than Christianity. So Islam is simply more detailed.

None of the above. What the world needs now is something new. Out with the old, in with the new. Not a religion but new gospels, new truths, revisions of the old. Something that unites us, not divides us. We need to get out of the mindset that the old ways are the best ways. We need another path to enlightenment - check out "Conversations with God", by Neale Donald Walsch.

None of the above. I believe Buddhism is the best, since it is about living in the now, trying to reduce pain in the world, non-violence, and good health habits. There is no god to be afraid of or to make deals with, and no hell, no promises made and broken. It is sensible, and about personal responsibility and kindness.

Who are you to think that one is greater than the other? Wars have been fought over this question, and the only conclusion I can come to is that they all perceive the same thing in different ways (God) and that therefore they all have equal value.

I can only tell you about Christianity which follows the example set by Jesus. He said: Love each other as I loved you. He asked God to forgive those who nailed him to a cross.
If we could all love each other there would be no need to forgive each other.

Whichever one you feel you identify with the most is best for you. Each person has the same question to ask themselves.
For me? None of 'em. But that's just me. :)
