A wise man once told me that religions are the same as the sides of a pyramid. As you climb higher you realise that they all lead to one point.

No Jesus said narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life and few are the ones finding it. So most people are not serving God.
You have to look back over the bible. Why did he destroy people in Noah's day? read Genesisn6:13 The earth was full of violence because of them. So he doesn't like violence.
Sodom and Gomorrah Gen.18:20 the angels were crying out to god about their immorality they were homosexuals.
so he doesn't like that.
REad your bible and think about what did he destroy them for before and some books by schools are required reading.
Yet the book that can give us life we don't read?
Get a good new english translation you can understand.

No they're all wrong. "God did not create man but ancient man who created God" -- Carl Sagan. Remember that religion is a very lucrative tax-free business. The global religions take in $3 billion a year in donations. Everyone is now jumping on the bandwagon with new religions popping up like mushrooms. And each one claims that they are, "God's True Religion" and no man in a cloud ever comes down to straighten out the disagreements even when they fight.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! as the Bible says in 1st Cor 8:5,6 Eph 4:4-6 Matt 7 :13,14,21-23 all theese highlight one theme that there is ONE GOD ONE FAITH ONE HOPE ONE BAPTISM ONE WAY THAT HE ACCEPTS .............. AS FOR THE REST THAT IS A LONG STORY SUFFICE IT TO SAY IT STARTED BACK ABOUT 2,000 YEARS AGO WHEN THEY WERE 2 BASIC RELIGIONS BY TYPE NOT NAME THEY WERE MONOTHEISTIC AND POLYTHEISTIC IE THE jEWS WH WORSHIPPED ONE gOD WHOSE NAME APPEARS IN pS 83:18 OKJV AND THE ROMANS ,GREEKS ECT WHO WORSHIPPED MANY PAGAN godsso then Jesus come and starts a third type called "CHRISTIAN " NO OTHER NAME OR RELIGION EXHISTED THEN AS TIME WENT ON apostates started to develop and try to mix Judaism and platonic philosophy and other pagan concepts and while the Apostles were alive they were able to keep this in check but as the last Apostle John was dying what was said in Acts 20: 29,30 started to develop so when John finished Revelation in 96 C.E. 2 yrs later he died and as time went on what was predicted came to pass a form of apostate christianity developed and the apostate christians and the pagans were fighting constantly finally in about 325C.E. Emperor Constantine decided to put an end to all the fighting and said I am going to make an official state religion that everyone has to worship so he took bits and pieces from the pagans and some from the apostate christians and put them all togother and as the centuries went by more pagan teachings were added and then some didnt like this or that teaching and broke off and started their own and so on down to our day that there are now some 10,000-20,000 different religions world wide and yes there are still some TRUE CHRISTIANS TODAY WHO HOLD ONTO JESUS TEACHINGS AND FOLLOW THE BIBLE NOT MAN OR HIS TRADITIONS THESE WERRE NAMED CENTURIES IN ADVANCE IN ISA 43 ;10-12AND THEESE CHRISTIANS FOLLOW IN JESUS FOOTSTEPS PREACHING AND TEACHING FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE IN IMMITATION OF THEIR LEADER JESUS JUST LIKE THE APOSTLES DID SO ITS UP TO YOU TO USE THE FREE WILL GOD GAVE YOU TO CHOOSE WHICH PATH YOU WILL FOLLOWMOST RELIGIONS TODAY DONT EVEN USE GODS NAME AS RECORDED SOME 7,210 TIME IN THE BIBLE SOME HAVE EVEN REMOVED IT FROM THEIR VERSION OF THE BIBLE IF YOU HAVE KJV YOU CAN FIND IT IN PS 83;18 FOR ONE HOPE THIS HELPS YOU GORBALIZER

It is in my view to do with money and power, there really is only one true church in my opinion and it stems from Jesus Christ, there are those that will criticize, condemn, and say all the nasty things they want but I will tell you it will all be in vain. All other religions have taken, added, and taken out, and exploited Christs very wise words only to create a religion for wealth power and control,

the flesh is weak thats why. There is the doctrine of being in one accord and because some have seen profit in subjugating this strong doctrine, and teaching things that separate and not teaching accountability for teachers and followers, much money and power have been amassed in the name of stay away from those neighbors. Denominations make Jesus weep.
teach Mat 18 and the letters to Tim, practice them and watch this separationist movement falter and disappear.

In some ways they are all right. For instance, Muslims have a strong belief in providing for their families. Also, Catholics have a strong belief in the communication with GOD. Lutherans have the connection of song and spiritual musicism with GOD. But its all about the heart of the person.

Some people accept prophets of God and some reject them. and others change the message of the prophet to fit their taste.
Some Major Prophets of God that people form a religion around
Zoro" (Most Likely)
Buddha (Most Likely)
Jesus
Muhammad
Moses
Abraham
and others that we do not know of
If you study all the major religions, you will come to the conclusion that they all teach th same things. Buddha didn't teach people to worship idols. And Jesus told people to worship God and that another Prophet was comming (Muhammad). And Moses told people not to reject prophets. People change and disagree and break up into sects although they have revelation.
And many others deem other people of religions to Hell , because the other may accept a prophet of God they don't, like Muslims accept Muhammad and Christians don't. And many others don't think there is a chance that Buddha was a prophet of God, and even in that religion, people have put their own spin on his teaching and divided into sects.
[3:19] The only religion approved by GOD is "Submission." Ironically, those who have received the scripture are the ones who dispute this fact, despite the knowledge they have received, due to jealousy. For such rejectors of GOD's revelations, GOD is most strict in reckoning.
I believe one religion is the complete truth, and the others are partial truths. Can't tell you which one because you have to find it out yourself for it to be valid and you to understand it.

people do not think alike, that what makes us unique. And thus, there are many beliefs about god and the way of life. But essentially they teach of one superior being known as "god" so yes essentially they are all right or all wrong. We do not know, but i think there is a god. (im a muslim)

They contradict each other (and themselves) too much for all of them to be right. For example, how could you have one god and many gods at the same time? It doesn't make sense. Or...how could all other religions be damned and not damned at the same time?
