that goes .... "there are many paths to the same place"
they were speaking of the spiritual world or heaven to them.
why can't this be true of all religions? why can't there be more than one way to heaven? if your good your good and that ought to be enough. there is after all more than one way to get into hell.

I like it. Because I personally can't really believe in a god or goddess that would be so petty and jealous to condemn good people just because they happened to follow other spiritual paths. I mean, God is supposed to be good, right? And last time I checked, "good" and "jealous" didn't exactly go hand-in-hand...

Sounds like a good motto for Unitarian Universalists. I don't think that every path necessarily leads to a good place, but I think each person should have the right to choose his or her own path to fulfillment, so long as they respect the law and rights of others to do the same. The Golden Rule works.

Good for you,the way you go about is take what is good and what is truth and love from all the beliefs then you ll join up with the GREAT SPIRIT FULL OF ALL THAT WAS GOOD INSIDE YOUR SPIRIT.FOR in the end that leads to the new beginning ,all your worth is the weight of your heart and the sum of the wisdom within

I agree with you 100%, theproblem with a lot of people, (notice I am not saying all) is that they have the tendency to think that only what they believe is correct and anything that disagrees with their beliefs is wrong

There are only two paths: One leads to life; the other to destruction.
“Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it."

The thing to remember though is that you're not good, even at your best, there is none good, except the Father.
