People have their own beliefs in different things, so why are other people trying to change people's beliefs? Out of all the religions in this world, why do people criticize them all? You are forgetting that man is a sinner of in the eyes of God! God created mankind, and all things were created by God. People say show me proof of God's existance. That is simple, how did you get here? Just look around you and see the things that man cannot create. Man has done so many things in this world, there's one thing that man can't do; and that is to create life. I'm not preaching to anyone, just trying to get you to open your eyes, and your heart for God. If people give their hearts to God, believe in God, have faith in God then all things are possible for all mankind sake!

every one has absolute believe in the religion he/she raised with. ofcourse you will defend your religion coz you think it is the survival in the second life. tell me how many people studied all other religions deeply and make decision of right religion afterwards. it is the most important subject to know about other religions coz you will have immortal life in the second life,
so when god asked you: "you were in the wrong side, that other religion was right", WHAT YOU WILL TELL HIM???. at least study other religions and get your believe, so if you were wrong at the end, you would tell your god that you did try your best to find the right religion, and this is actually what god is looking for.
finally it is clear that there is only one god in my openion!

Your question assumes there is only one God, what proof do you have that's true?
The problem lies with each person's belief that everyone is (or should be) just like them. The less you require/demand others must be, "just like me," the greater your acceptance and tolerance.
And man is not a born sinner, that's a false belief. The only sin is separation from God. God never turns away from you, only you can turn away from God. NOTE: Jesus is not God, he was a messenger.
Don't confuse the message with the messenger.

I don't think it is so much that anyone is criticizing anyone else's religion, but that they want really bad for people to know the one true God. yes, you said there is one God, but unfortunately, many people put their faith in false gods. Just because someone says, "Lord, Lord", does not mean the know the true God. Just because someone worships one god does not mean that god is the true God. There many false gods who masquerade as the true god. The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob is the true God. Don't mix Him up with other gods. Jesus is our Messiah, the Son of God, three in one with the Father and the Holy Spirit. He came to earth for our salvation and left us the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. Don't be fooled by other religions which claim a Prophet like Buddha and Allah. Jesus is the way, the truth and the light. Jesus is the only way to the Father God. Accept Him today for there is no other way.

Each religion believes in God. The problem arises when followers of one religion believe that God as perceived by them is the only real God. If people following different religions do this, then a conflict arises and it becomes 'my God' versus 'your god', 'mine is better', etc.
People have to accept that there is only one Universal God, and that different religions have different names and diverse ways of reaching God, in order that all religions could survive without strife.
It is a different thing if someone does not believe in the existence of God.

What you are talking about is caused by people who are insecure in their beliefs.
They often try to excuse this behavior in ways that outwardly appear to be benevolant and selfless, talking about things like the moral fabric of society and caring so much they don't want you to burn in hell or to be otherwise ignorant of what is 'right'.
In reality, they only seek validation.
This applys to most everyone's beliefs and all religions equaly. Atheists who don't shut up about Atheism are the same as Christians who don't shut up about Christianity.

Another thing is that a relationship with God has nothing to do with religion. It is about a trust in Jesus Christ that He will get you to Heaven when you die and that you can enjoy an eternal relationship with Him!

So how did you decide atheism is wrong, polytheism is wrong, but monotheism is correct? It wouldn't have anything to do with being raised in a monotheist home, now would it?

Right now you are preaching Christianity, thereby critizing all other religions, especially polytheistic ones.

I don't think people should 'force' people to convert or anything,but I think it is good to clarify your religion to other people.
