Some old history books are parents studied said Columbus discovered America. Then another said another guy.
It was on the net like a bunch of guys depending on who you ask.
Encarta, a computer set of encyclopedias has to be changed all the time because facts change so fast. History facts.
Depending on which country is telling the story. How could all religion be right? Since most teach that the other ones are all wrong. Someone has to be wrong? There can only be one truth.

I understand most things we are told are wrong.
They tell us this is the way that it should be and they don't know their self what is right.
Your right about the one true religion. If there is an Almighty creator of us all he would have one true religion.
It would be non violent, kind and caring.

I will agree that history is generally written by the conquerors.. but you babble on from there and make very little sense.
Why does anyone have to be wrong?
Is it not just possible that there is more than one way to "God"?
Is it possible that "God" isn't that petty and if He/She IS all powerful, all knowing, almighty.. that this entity might just be gracious enough to accept whatever you believe about Him/Her or even that you don't?
Perhaps if you really want to emulate the Creator, you might try a bit of tolerance and acceptance.

Through the study of Scripture and the Church Fathers, we see that, not only is the Catholic faith biblical, Catholicism is Bible Christianity par excellence.
Because the Old and New Testament Scriptures are the divinely-revealed, written Word of God, Catholics venerate the Scriptures as they venerate the Lord's body. But Catholics do not believe that God has given us His divine Revelation in Christ exclusively through Scripture. Catholics also believe that God's Revelation comes to us through the Apostolic Tradition and teaching authority of the Church.
What Church? Scripture reveals this Church to be the one Jesus Christ built upon the rock of Saint Peter (Matt. 16:18). By giving Peter the keys of authority (Matt. 16:19), Jesus appointed Peter as the chief steward over His earthly kingdom (cf. Isaiah. 22:19-22). Jesus also charged Peter to be the source of strength for the rest of the apostles (Luke 22:32) and the earthly shepherd of Jesus' flock (John 21:15-17). Jesus further gave Peter, and the apostles and elders in union with him, the power to bind and loose in heaven what they bound and loosed on earth. (Matt. 16:19; 18:18). This teaching authority did not die with Peter and the apostles, but was transferred to future bishops through the laying on of hands (e.g., Acts 1:20; 6:6; 13:3; 8:18; 9:17; 1 Tim. 4:14; 5:22; 2 Tim. 1:6).
By virtue of this divinely-appointed authority, the Catholic Church determined the canon of Scripture (what books belong in the Bible) at the end of the fourth century. We therefore believe in the Scriptures on the authority of the Catholic Church. After all, nothing in Scripture tells us what Scriptures are inspired, what books belong in the Bible, or that Scripture is the final authority on questions concerning the Christian faith. Instead, the Bible says that the Church, not the Scriptures, is the pinnacle and foundation of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15) and the final arbiter on questions of the Christian faith (Matt. 18:17). It is through the teaching authority and Apostolic Tradition (2 Thess. 2:15; 3:6; 1 Cor. 11:2) of this Church, who is guided by the Holy Spirit (John 14:16,26; 16:13), that we know of the divine inspiration of the Scriptures, and the manifold wisdom of God. (cf. Ephesians 3:10).

Only one claimed to be the Truth Himself and also to be with out sin. Only one claimed to be God Himself in the flesh. Only one claimed to have come to pay for sin Himself so sinners can be accepted again by God. And yes they can not all be right.
