If you reap what you sow, then in religious superiority you will reap the same emotion that you plant in others, with your selfish idea of being better or in a better situation than those that do not share your beliefs?

Buddy, when it boils down to it,----someone is right, and most of the people are wrong.
Why? Because most are taking the broad road to destruction and few are finding the narrow path to life.
But selfishness that you see in others is not a Christian trait.
Yes, all of us one way or the other, has some selfishness, but true followers and leaders in Christ are to set aside personal wants, and try to save others.
Instead of focusing on someones personal shortcoming, examine their religion as a whole, then decide.

Could be.
Maybe we should all focus on the betterment of Humanity, not just the betterment of our selves, family, church or country. If we truly viewed one another as fellows first, above other considerations, then I believe that the world would be a better place.
If everyone treated everyone else as a friend, then I imagine that war and certain fundamental religious views would be outmoded entirely.

reap what you sow is non-scriptural... it's just like cause and effect...
it's just like saying people will kill each other for food if it werent for the scriptures...
like the golden rule. but it's not arithmetic that you get 2 with 1+1... sometimes you get nothing back.

Good point.
We all need to remember that. It is easy to get carried away on this site into typing fast answers and retorts. The keyboard becomes an extension of that ever so wicked instrument, the tongue!

True. That is why we are supposed to practice humility. He who wishes to be first must be last.

What many people do not understand with true Christians , they do not believe they are better but, they believe that Jesus who is within them is better.
