because personally i think all religions are pretty much the same they teach the same moral kindness, not to kill anyone, not to steal, not to cheat....what is the difference? why should i follow one religion and not another if they are so similar. how do i know which one is the truth, where's the proof proving one wrong and another the true religion.

"None of the Above" is the best choice. None of them have any evidence nor proof.

what you think "kindness, not to kill anyone, not to steal, not to cheat" its just the basics to all religion. u cant say they are all the same if u havent studied them . If u want to know which religion is the true religion then go and study or research about them .
The fastest growing religion in the world is Islam . Its because after 9/11 islam has been in the media and has been given bad publicity and some poeple thought that there must be more to to islam then what the media portrays. . Did you know that every hour 2 people in america convert to islam and that is still growing.

It's true that most religions do teach the same moral things, however, true religion would actually be follwoing these standards.
Try reading the bible for yourself. The true religion would be the one the sticks to what it says and doesnt enduldge their teaches in man-made philosiphy or traditions.
All in all only you can decide the right religion for you.
Pray about it!

IF YOU TRULY FEEL THIS WAY, GOOD FOR YOU, YOU FOUND THE SECRET.
Now spend your life getting to know all religions and help in the fight for religious tolerance accross the board.
I have been studying for a long time and you are right, most religions have the same base of being good and doing good. I wish the world could see that it was just that simple. The other thing they all have in common is they all believe in the same God, they just have different names for him or her.
Good luck

god is vast
all religions have a part
belief in the unproven is the key
religions are to cast light through the mortal veil into the possable
the unseen cause of our being
to look past what we are being to what we really are
there is your me that is of god
but also EVERY other
the same
we all have the same
but that part of the story
we could make a new religion just be knowing that which give life
via the light ,the perfect .the love ,the truth
d-evil/vile veil/live-d

I will tell you which religion to follow......the truest religion in this world is humanity.......no other religion comes near it......yes you are right that all religions teach the same......but the way of teaching is different......each one teaches the same thing but follows a slightly different approach from the others.......so you choose the one whose path is the easiest for you to understand and follow.......but i will still say that humanity is the best religion.....work is the best worship and your duty your god.......your duty is to make this world a better place.....work to attain this goal and make people see that when they see that they are childish in their thoughts that their religion is better.

In today's society religions are recieving a lot of slander like the Muslims. Therefore it is more important to look at the source(the Quran, the Bible, or the Torah) and then make judgement. People today are giving their religion's bad stereotypes.

In the first place one should not be worried about religion and religious beliefs.
In the second one should look for ones own spiritual development before venturing out to sermonise.
And for the purpose of spiritual development the basic humane and ethical norms are the same all over.

The proof is in the PuDdInG. Read, study, and obey GOD's WORD and you will be on the right track. HIS WORD was written over a 1500 year period with no contradictions in it. HE made certain of that. I attend a Non-denominational Church because I want to follow HIS WORD without man's opinion or set of guidelines to go with it. We take the BIBLE as our ONLY GUIDE in worship and in leading us to the TRUTH. Have a great day. If you are interested, contact me and I will chat about this with you PeRsOnAllY.

EDIT... The Roman Catholic Church was NOT started by Christ. It uses man-made beliefs from the git-go. It changes as often the "POPE" changes his "hair dresser". They do not even follow much of whaqt was written by the Apostles.

Some people feel the need to affiliate with a set of dogma and creeds and choose the one with which they feel most comfortable. There is no wrong religion, but each one believes itself to be the true religion!

Not true compare the following writings from 2 major ones First Christianity
(Matt.5:41-47
41 If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
43 "You have heard that it was said, `Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
44 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
next Islam
“When you meet the unbelievers, strike off their heads; then when you have made wide slaughter among them, carefully tie up the remaining captives.” (Quran47.4).
"And when the sacred months are passed, kill those who join other gods with God [i.e. moshrekin.] wherever ye shall find them; and seize them, besiege them, and lay wait for them with every kind of ambush: but if they shall convert, and observe prayer, and pay the obligatory alms, then let them go their way, for God is Gracious, Merciful."(Quran 9:5)
And as for Christians and Jews who rejected him he has this to say:
"Make war upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given and believe not in God, or the last day, and who forbid not that which God and His Apostle have forbidden..."( Quran. 9:29)
These are the injunctions of Muhammad’
still feel all religions are pretty much the same ???
