If I found peace and happiness with another religion/God?
All I have ever heard is they want me to find peace and serenity through the lord and savior...
Well, if I find happiness is it okay if it isn't Jesus?
Or do I have to believe what THEY do to be truly happy?

They should be..but like the above answerers....some are not. Believe it or not, you can be happy with and without religion. And yes, you can find peace and serenity with other religions. For example, Buddhist monks can find peace. The trouble nowadays is that some more extreme people from varying religions think their "God" is the only "true" path to happiness.

"I am the way, the truth, and the light, no one shall see the Father except through Me" Said by Jesus in John chapter 3. But if your truly happy I pray that God has mercy on your soul!!!

peace and happiness aren't the only indicators of TRUTH.

If you are happy then yes I am happy for you even if I do not actually agree with what you have chosen.

took Years for me to come to this: What do we care so much what strangers think about what we do......... You do what makes your life a fulfilled one, and anyone who wants to force their religion, beliefs, etc. on you or down your throat, is a finatic!

Religion is the same, no person is wrong, people make it evil. the generalization is the same. We all call something different god.

I have seen drunks in Bars that are perfectly happy.
So, big deal. I have seen Heroin addicts happy.
Either your seeking Truth, through Jesus Christ, and found it, or you didn't.

I'm ok with it! But i'm pretty sure Jesus feels sad now! i can't imagine how sad he feels when people reject him! =[
look, i didn't mean it this way, but i just don't want people to go to the bad place(In other words, i don't want u to suffer in hell), is it bad/mean 4 me to think that?
