Would the world be a better place if everyone on this planet believed in one religion?

Evee that would depend. Do you mean that we would not know any different because in that case we all would have been born and raised into the same religion? That's a good question though. '-)

The world would be a better place if we would all focus our energy on positive things, helped and loved one another, and loved our neighbor as ourself.
I don't quite think that one religion would do it, if it were the wrong one.
God loves all.
All means all.
I think it matters not what religion one affiliates with, it's the real true what's behind it that counts.
We could use a little peace on earth.
Or a lot.
It starts small, with me.
I try to do what I can with what I've been given!
Peace.

Oh goodness no. God is too big for just one religion. We all need different ways to get closer to God. Religion is our tool to do that. People need to have the tool (religion) of their choice - that works best for them.
BUT - the world WOULD be a better place if we would all start respecting each other's religions. Because there is only one God - and It loves us all no matter how we choose to know it.

Do you know how many different sects there are in Christianity, alone? Do you know why there are so many different Christian sects in the United States? People come from different communities...and have differing values and mores that are reflected within the religion that they practice. What if you came not to like the faith you were practicing? Would you be outcast? Religism is the least of our worries in making this panet a better place.

Everyone would get along and therefore yes it would be a much better place, but it would be almost impossible to get everyone to believe in the same religion.

It might be but I believe that is no longer poassible. We have a number of governments that allow their people to worship whatever they want, including the quarter in their pocket or nothing at all. There are also governing bodies that tell their people what they are to believe and worship. Therefore, I do not believe that it will be possible but it would certainly be a nice thing to find out. I think that it might bring all of GOD's PEOPLE together and they would be able to cling to one another for a change. Have a great week!

It wouldn't be possible and it isn't possible. One religion would just cause problems within the barriers of that religion. Look at Christianity... there are ALL SORTS of different churches belonging to a single belief called God. Spirituality is where you want to be.

It would put an end to the fighting because they can't agree on God. It's ironic that the ones who are against that idea the most are the religions.

Evee, it's coming. There is only One true God and when Jesus returns to rule and reign on the earth His Word will be heard. He came the first time to save us from sin. He comes the second time to rule with a rod of iron as Kings of Kings and Lord of Lords.
