I don't. I feel that we should all be allowed to believe in whatever we wish.

I am a Jehovah's Witness. We believe that God has the absolute right to rule over man and that his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, is the only mediator between God and man. We use the scriptures (all of them) to check anything and everything that we are told as we believe them to be absolutely God's word and we publish at least 4 different translations for use. We receive more spiritual food, direction and encouragement from the faithful and discreet slave than we can possibly take in. It is a protection for us as it keeps us taking in good information based on the Bible. We are continuing in the work which Jesus taught us to do--teaching anyone who will listen about God's Kingdom and how it will bring relief from this wicked system of things. We know that God supports this work financially and therefore no collection plate is ever passed. If we are able and God moves us to give, we give discreetly from our hearts. We love eachother and all others dispite their country of origin, skin color, or whatever other differences they might have. We want all people to survive Armegeddon and if it seems we are at times a little pushy, it is only out of concern for your life.

Of course I believe that my beliefs are better than others, otherwise I wouldn't believe them, would I? It's not like I just pulled all my beliefs out of a hat or something.
Obviously we should all be allowed to choose our own beliefs, but as far as I'm concerned, if you don't agree with me you chose wrong. And chances are, you think I chose wrong too. It's not a brilliant situation, but it's all part of allowing people to think for themselves. Which is important, because given the fact that I think some people are wrong and they think I'm wrong, there's a good chance we'd all be wrong if we were forced to believe the same thing.

I think everybody does, no matter what the belief is. People should be able to believ whatever they feel is right to them. Nobody wants to think that they might be wrong in their beliefs, or that the others may be right; so that's where your faith comes in.
The problem comes when people are so closeminded by their faith that they won't even open themselves to see what others believ as well. Just because you read about Allah, doesn't mean you are forsaking your God. Knowledge is power. Knowing about other beliefs (thoroughly),even though you believe differently, makes it easier for you to accept others for what they believe instead of condemming them.
