Be you Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Jew, Sikh or other.
Accept your religion as the only way, the only truth, do you?

Yep. Thanks for such an easy question (2 points!)

Yes I do. I am a Christian and I have put my trust in Jesus Christ and the Bible. I agree with the answer given by God's Child - and would like to add that his statement is also true of the churches in the East (Orthodox) and the Anglican churches as well as the other protestant churches which split from Rome at the Reformation. We all have the common roots which he talks of - the falling out happened as the church grew in it's understanding of how church should be organised and of the details of the doctrine and faith - the basics remain the same in all the churches.
I also like to think that I am open to learn from different religions - but cannot accept that they are all equal - because they clearly cannot be as they clearly contradict each other.

Religion is man made, I do believe the facts behind my religion, but i have faith in God, and that has nothing to do with mans misunderstanding of him. Much of religion has been used to control others, mine does not, much of religion is about power, mine is not, my religion does not kill in God's name like most of the other religions over the years, what is my religion,
I'm a Spiritualist, we believe in God, we share and give our love freely, and we do all we can to help others.
Many of the other religions say these things, but do not full fill it.
Love & Peace

Anyone who claims that they KNOW the definitive answer to this question must have first hand experience or knowledge of the mind of god.
However, as god is a supernatural entity whom noone living OR dead has ever seen, nor can communicate with and could not probably even conceive of even in his/her presence, then anyone claiming this is a gobshite.
I can accept that people believe in these things, but don't claim that the proof in any of the holy books is anything other than a code written by man for social cohesion, subjugation, etc.
[NB for any smartarses who think that they can get me by saying people see god when they go to heaven, don't fall into that trap because they are by definition then dead.]

No religion is the truth. Religion is man made and therefore flawed. ONLY Jesus Christ is the Truth. Only Jesus Christ in the Way. Jim

Spiritual truth is like a mountain. There many routes to the top but, once you get the summit, everybody has reached the same place.
I'm a Buddhist. No, I don't believe that my lot have cornered the market on truth, nor that anyone else has. (Though it might be compassionate not to let them know that).

I do not believe any 'religion' can hold the whole truth
The truth is that the Galillean is too big forb our small minds.

There can be only one. Well actually two. Moses and Jesus. So either Judaism or Christianity. Take your pick.
Scientology can be useful for business oontacts/networking as there are a number of high net worth individuals in the club.

I will not be as arogant as some can be with this question but I will tell you like I tell others.... I don't represent religion b/c religion has bad habits! I will tell you that Jesus Christ is Lord. Earth shall pass away but God's Word will stand forever. One day, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Jesus is the Truth and the LIfe. shall I go on? I will say as Elijah did... when their god can outdo my God... I will gladly bow but until then>>>>>>>>>>>> you better recognize!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
