Yes I believe all religions are basily good. However, most people are "sheep" and if the religious leaders tell their followers that we must "convert all people to our religion for the good of their soul and so that we will go to heaven" too many will fall in line with the hate talk of their religious leaders. It is medieval to try to force another to your beliefs. If you cannot convience them by your example, then leave them to their own belief. Remember that God loves us all;however, at the end of time, he will judge us all.

Historically, religion has taken the peaeful message of their founders and twisted them to fit their convenience. This is why the Catholoic church did nothing about the Holocausts, brought us the Spanish Inquistion, which contrary to MOnty Python, was not that good a time for some folks. Religion has also rubber stamped slavery and the (mis)treatment of women and children as well as the poor.

Borg pets are more insightful than many humans in this forum. Borg pet 6 of 10 is correct in his observation.

What is false religion?
Why does religion seem to be at the root of so many problems?
The fault lies, not with all religion, but with “false” religion.
False Religion...MEDDLES IN WAR AND POLITICS: How many religions can you think of whose members engage in war?
False Religion...SPREADS FALSE DOCTRINE: Most religions teach that the soul of spirit is some invisible part of a human that survives the death of the physical body. However, the Bible teaches a different doctrine. “The soul that is sinning, it itself will die.” Ezekiel 18:4 Jesus taught that the dead will be resurrected, an unnecessary action if humans had an immortal soul. Does your religion teach that the soul does not die?
False Religion...TOLERATES IMMORAL SEX: Church groups ordain gay and lesbian members of the clergy. What, though, does the Bible teach? It plainly states: “Do YOU not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men.” 1 Cor. 6:9,10 Do you know of religions that condone immoral sex?
How to identify true religion.
True Religion...PRACTICES LOVE: True worshippers are “no part of the world,” are not divided by race or culture, and display “love among themselves.” Rather than killing one another, they are willing to die for one another.
True Religion...TRUSTS GOD'S WORD: Instead of teaching “tradition” and “commands of men as doctrines,” true religion bases its doctrine on God's Word, the Bible
True Religion...STRENGTHENS FAMILIES AND UPHOLDS HISH MORAL STANDARDS: True religion trains husbands to “love their wives as their own bodies,” helps wives to develop “deep respect for their husbands,” and teaches children to “be obedient to their parents.”

i think of it quite is trouble-free to illustrate that maximum religions are at their coronary heart warlike or at superb antagonistic. it quite is using the fact all of them sell in-team/out-team thinking - we are the chosen, all different religions are incorrect style of ingredient - which has been demonstrated psychologically to steer even very challenge-free human beings to acts of atrocity. in between the main usual experiments, unviersity pupils had to be pulled out of the attempt because of fact they have been harming one yet another. to boot, maximum religions instruct intolerance of non believers to a minimum of one diploma or yet another. In the two Christianity and Islam this has meant the dying penalty or oastracism for apostates or unbelievers. it quite is hardly ever non violent.

You know I heard this once, but I don't know. My thing is why believe antything else. If you follow the bible you won't go wrong, but turn you way from it you'll be sent to hell.
