is it from your family tradition? national practice? personal experience? I want to know why people think jesus will come fix everything for them? cause he won't I would like to know why people think their religion/God is better? why they go to war and kill each other if they're pretending their "God" is peaceful? the only one God is the creator of the universe. these beings that started these religions are not gods. they have no power to judge you or tell you what to do. and yes your spirit is your soul and you do continue on after death. I wish this planet would stop being divided and sacrificed to the worship of these demagogues - jehovah, jesus, allah, buddhism, vishnu. human beings should own their reality and their power to make their own lives. they should be focused on education and economic well being and stop wasting their intellects on these cults. when you pass you will realize I'm right. while you're here try to remember your own sanctity.

The one God is the creator of the heavens and earth, he is a creature of infinite power, presence and knowledge. But he is not the only one, he is one of many, he commanded that he be the first one worshiped, not that he was the only one there was to worship. Faith is the key to our reaching the best the afterlife has to offer, for toes who think there is nothing, they will find emptiness, for those who know they will reach heaven there will be a place of light and peace, for those who have wronged others, for their selfishness they will see only what they want and find themselves a miserable wanderer until they can see beyond themselves and into the ethereal.
As far as Jesus or Jehovah or any other, I feel you are right, though I personally believe in Christ, people have taken their religion and placed it above human life and enlightenment. There will come a great peace and everyone will know the name of the true God, and he will call out to his people, this is not from a book but from my heart where all faith should come from.

A great majority of people believe what they do because their parents/families forced them into it. A lot of times, when asked people will say "'cause my momma told me... because my family always did..." Which is fine... nothing really wrong with following family tradition.
There are a select few who will break the mold, and then become brainwashed into something, simply because they are afraid to think for themselves. It's hard to step out of the bubble.. some are simply gullible.'
Yet, there are others, like myself, who have decided that doing what the family does is not necessarily the right path for me. Once i was out on my own, and better empowered to think for myself, I did some spiritual research and found the path that resonated best for me.
Many are plainly unhappy and spiritually ill because they are stuck in a forced faith. They simply need to open their eyes to the spiritual plane and find where their heart resonates best. I have a feeling that would solve a number of the problems in this world.

Sounds to me as though you are very confused as to what people believe & why!!
I don't believe or follow any hell created 'Religion'... as it is religion that causes many of the problems, & wars you see and hear of... along with man!!
I believe in the one true God... in the trinity of the Father, Son (Jesus): & Holy Spirit!!
There is no conditioning behind this... just a true Faith & Belief in the word of God, (The Bible)... and all the things He has show, & done for me over the many years!!
As for education: economics: heath: law etc: look to the people you elect to run your country to change these thing… as they have, nothing or very little to do with religion/Christianity/God!!

Yes, it is true that God is ONE. He is not a triple god or triune god or any other polydeity. In fact, Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the bible quite plainly teaches that Jehovah and Jesus are distinct persons, and Jesus is a created being.
(Philippians 2:5-6) Christ Jesus, who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God
(John 8:42) Neither have I come of my own initiative at all, but that One sent me forth
(John 12:49) I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak
(1 Corinthians 15:28) But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him
