Could you be more vague?

Yes. From the standpoint that all religions are man made to serve the needs of the people that developed them.
Most people know there probably isn't any more a God than a group of Aliens that created the earth and/or life and/or created humans. Most people either don't want to let anyone else know they don't believe in what their religion says is God or they don't believe at all just due to common logic.
Religions are like Labor Unions. Throughout time they both have served a purpose and at a time they are not needed anymore and the people that run them attempt to hang on and force others to continue to belong to their group. Sometimes through Violence.
All religions are valid in some way because they all serve a purpose of their human creators and they are all false.

They help people endure bad moments. But on the other hand, they manipulate people. So on the whole, they're negative. Besides, religions are not the only way to go through bad times. So, the good part of religions can be obtained in other ways.
Religions are like drugs. They make you feel good at first, but in the long run, the consequences are terrible for you. And you can always feel good by other means that are not eventually harmful.

NO! Since the fact that all religions say that they are the only ones that are truly the way to the path to a god, they render the whole concept moot. And because the entire concept was conceived by man, and left solely to mans interpretation, it is inherently foulable, and again invalidates itself. And since there is no god,no religion is valid.

Yes, all religions are valid in some way or other. But, many people feel that theirs is better or others are wrong and are too close minded to notice similarities between what they believe and what others believe.

So, in your opinion the Aztec belief that a daily ritual human sacrifice was necessary to ensure that the sun rose the next morning was valid?
Please explain how.

Parts of all religions are valid purely from a moral stand point however historically none of them can be proven true with any degree of scientific certainty

More like equally invalid.
Since all religion at it's core is based on the unproven but taken on faith belief in the existence of a supernatural being

Of course not, truth can only be told in so many ways. When it starts conflicting itself it can't have any validity to it.

There is some truth in (almost) every religion. Because all of them are looking for God and much to find some of the truth about Him. But as vast and complex as he is, no one religion has ever been able to find the full truth about him. So he had to come as the man Jesus Christ to reveal the full truth about himself. So why mess around with partial truth when you can have it all?

My dad always use to tell me that there was a pope (can't remeber his name) that always said to people, speacially young people, "believe! it doesn't matter in what you believe but believe!!!!!"
So yes, I think all religions are valid, they are valid to however believes them aren't they?
