Can't we all just get along? -Religion Q?

Question

There is flas in every thing man made. Thus saying this. Makes the bible unperfect as some claim it to be. Even other "Beliefs" there are fals. I am not that anything aisnt them. I am jsut saying. If you look at all reigions. There is a common thing Higher Power.. er um Most Reliogions there is a Higher Power. SO I dont see why Christain have to push (ak force) there religion on every one else. Like Invite them to church . When they know what they beleive or Push in there religion when they know we are sick. I guess I am kinda gaisnt them more then otehrs cuz that is the only religion but Muslims tht push . Muslims jsut kill. I dont se that right either.
Just liek the math system we know could be wrong.
2+2= . SOme would say 4. But that could equal inity too. There are two ones in the "+" and two 1's in th "=" sign. So if oyu keep add in all the extra ones your never have an aswer. So wht do you think on this?

Answer 1

I think it's incredibly difficult to determine what, exactly, you are trying to get across here.
I expect you are saying that no specific religion is greater than others, as they all seem to have the same basic precept, which I will agree to completely.
Your mathematics metaphor is a bit confusing, which may just be because of the way in which you have presented it, and I fail to see what it has to do with your above statement.
As for the main question of "Can't we all just get along?", I'm going to have to say that this is a resounding NO. As much as I would love it if the world as a whole, and all religions, sects, peoples, races, sexes, etc. could get along, this is not something likely to happen in my or your lifetime, and probably not in the lifetimes of the next several generations of people to follow us. As long as there are different beliefs, there will be conflict amongst them, and this will lead to wars.
Until such time as humanity as a whole can come to terms with this fact, and do something constructive about it, nothing will change.
Sorry my answer is so pessimistic, but it is how I feel on the subject.

Answer 2

No, people can't get along, not until people take their own lives into their own hands. Not Jesus's, not Allah's, not Buddhas. I'm not saying that what the bible or what the quran teaches is wrong, but the way people interpret it is. There are people who actually believe that god hates you because of your skin color or what sexual orientation you are and that is horrific. Some may think to accept a set of beliefs without question is "faith" but I believe that this is "bondage". This does not mean that there are no positive aspects of religion. For the most part, religions provide a moral fiber.Good will, obedience, etc. Overall, religion itself is not bad;although man inspired beliefs are, no matter how you look at it, we are a product of human existance. The only thing that I can truly believe in is humanity, because the world we live in is a very human world and I am a human being.

Who knows? maybe what I've said is wrong and maybe religions are flawed. Religion to me, is to seek truth.

Answer 3

the first amendment guarantees us the right for freedom of religion. no one can "force" us to believe something. they can invite us to church, but it's ultimately our choice for going or not. I assume you mean "flaws" when you said there is flas in everything man made? well, it's true that man wrote the Bible, but they each wrote it under the influence of the Holy Spirit, or God. God spoke through them. I don't want to force that on you, but that's just what I think. As for the 2+2 thing...I don't think we can count the lines in the + and = as 1's. When those signs were created, they were never meant to be numbers. Truth mixes with fiction and then we all get confused. Same thing with religion. I'm not saying you can't think that way. But the world has accepted it as that, for many many years. It would be very difficult to change it. Christians "force" their religion on everyone else because probably they feel like they're helping other. That's just what they believe. They were born in that community, that religion. We choose what religion we want, but then again, the first amendment promises the freedom of speech as well.
I hope this answers your question!

Answer 4

It is difficult to understand your intentions in asking this muddled question. Anyway, the act of inviting another to go to church is not forcing an individual to go. The reason a christian will invite a non-believer to church is in the hope that their soul could be saved. It is not an issue of coercion but of saving from eternal damnation the non-believer. Remember, God loves you more than you could fathom. This is why he sent his only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for the forgiveness of sins.
