Answer 2

Judaism is about life here on earth; the concept of "messiah" is about peace on earth and justice for all mankind. Jews don't obsess over the afterlife because no one really knows what it will bring if there is one. No one is condemned to eternal punishment. The goal of every Jew is to make the world we live in a better place for all mankind. No, I see very little connection between the religions other than the use of the same book which is interpreted quite differently in each religion.

“To be a Jew is to be commanded to take actions because they are right, not for material gain or comfort. Had Abraham wanted tranquility and prosperity, he would have carried on his father’s idol business. To be a Jew is to open one’s tent on all four sides so that any stranger in need can enter from every direction. To be a Jew is to believe that the world can be redeemed. To be a Jew is to be carried by the current of the ancient Jewish river that keeps on flowing.” Arthur Hertzberg.

Jews do not need Christianity to explain their existence or their origin, but Christians cannot explain their existence without Judaism.

Answer 3

Religion was, in the beginning , a means to control the masses, codes, like the ten commandments are a common place feature of most religions and the promise of a better life hereafter was commonly held out to suppressed peoples to keep them in line.
Now religion is a very big business with tele evangelists of all the, unfortunately, Christian sects robbing the naive of their savings, take a look at all of the monuments to the ego of some church men and women that are in existence, millions of dollars
spent on egotistical edifices when that money could have been spent to a far greater advantage helping others.
Christ said it far better than any man "Feed my lambs"
He needed no Chrystal Cathedral when he preached The Sermon on the Mount.

Answer 4

if you have come to this conclusion, then you have not read all of those texts. The bible says that it is the only way, and the Koran also says the same thing. It doesn't take a religion to be a good person, atheists are good people too. The only relation between Christianity, Judaism, and Islam is that they claim their roots in Abraham.

Answer 5

There are relationships between various religions. Buddhism came out of Hinduism, the cults of various similar gods in the Greek and the Roman empires came to be identified with each other (Aphrodite, Dianna, sun gods, moon gods, weather gods, etc), and as you have said Judaism, Christianity and Islam have common origins.

Religions start in different ways. Sometimes they start as a sect of another religion and then split away because of disagreements (Christianity started life as one of the sects within Judaism, like Protestants split away from the Catholic church).

Sometimes they are start off as an independent new religion by individual people who are seen as prophets or teachers and in these cases they sometimes borrow elements from the existing religions in the places where they live (Islam was started by the Prophet Mohammed who borrowed elements of Judaism and Christianity and also from pre-Islamic Arab traditions (Arab culture, laws, historical stories, ideas about Jinns etc). Confucianism is based on the teachings of Confucius and is more a philosophy than a religion. Buddhism, Sikkhism and the Bahai faith were also started by gurus, and they too seem to have borrowed ideas from other religions).

Some people say that all religions lead to the same goal, like many paths from different sides of a mountain all leading to the top, but i think that is a rather simplistic view. Despite the relationships between different religions, there are also important differences between them, which is why they are considered different religions.

Important differences include:

Ideas about God or Gods (how many gods are there, and if there is only one god what is that god like, what are his or her characteristics, what does it want people to do, etc).

Holy scriptures: what is the best holy book, what does the holy book say, who are recognised as prophets and who are not, how should the book be interpreted.

Rules for living: What food to eat, how many wives a man can have, what clothing to wear, how to behave towards other people, what are a person's duties to god(s) and to other people, what and when are the holy days, how to pray, etc.

The afterlife: Reincarnation, life as a spirit in a spirit world, physical bodily resurrection and life in a physical world, heaven, hell, purgatory, is there a day of judgement when each person is judged by God, will there be an end to this world, etc.

Another misconception is that all religion is a good thing. You only have to look at all the wars over religion, mass suicides led by cult leaders, religious people killing other people in the name of their religion, and all the prejudice and hate that comes from religious people, to see that this is not true.

Yet another misconception is that all religion is a bad thing. Although secular people don't want to admit it, all the good moral values and ethics that we have come from religions. Ideas like humility, service to others, and placing the welfare of others above that of self-- true self sacrificing altruistic love, caring for the less fortunate, freeing the slaves, human rights, etc.

So which is the best religion? This is something that each person has to decide for himself or herself. As a religious person, i believe that there is a God who cares about each person’s life and that if a person seeks to find God, God will come to him and meet him and let him know about him.

Answer 6

Religions leads to the same goal. Some religions are very basic, therefore after we learn what theses basic religion teaches us we advance to a more elevated process, just like when we graduate from elementary we go on to junior and then to high school and college. God send us a system of religion according to our desires and spiritual elevation.

Answer 7

All religious talking the same thing but regionally different language and different interpretation. If you can go into their silas, commaments, quy, and results such as nirvana, peace and happy, heaven, hell. The only way to break off the fences are to sit down and talk each other.

Answer 8

Yes, there is. A lot of monotheistic religions (especially the major ones) stem from the same myths or borrow dogma/stories/claims/traditions from older pagan religions.

Answer 9

Yes, they are all closely related. They have been revealed to mankind throughout history (every 500-1000 years) as God promised. Each one claims to be the only Way and each one is true. God spoke through each Manifestation of Himself (Buddha, Moses, Jesus Christ, Mohammed, Baha'u'llah, etc.) so when each one of these perfect Souls claims to be the Way They speak the truth - They are the Way to God for that age.

“Know thou assuredly that the essence of all the Prophets of God is one and the same. Their unity is absolute. God, the Creator, saith: There is no distinction whatsoever among the Bearers of My Message. They all have but one purpose; their secret is the same secret. To prefer one in honor to another, to exalt certain ones above the rest, is in no wise to be permitted. Every true Prophet hath regarded His Message as fundamentally the same as the Revelation of every other Prophet gone before Him. …
The measure of the revelation of the Prophets of God in this world, however, must differ. Each and every one of them hath been the Bearer of a distinct Message, and hath been commissioned to reveal Himself through specific acts. It is for this reason that they appear to vary in their greatness. …
… God’s purpose in sending His Prophets unto men is twofold. The first is to liberate the children of men from the darkness of ignorance, and guide them to the light of true understanding. The second is to ensure the peace and tranquility of mankind, and provide all the means by which they can be established. …” -Baha'u'llah

Answer 10

To me I see a strong connection especially between Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Judaism started it, Christianity filled it, Islam completes it.
It = Faith
Like the chapters of a really good book. If you know what I mean.
