Be honest which religion seems to be the hardest to practice Judaism, Islam or Christianity?

Question

I am asking practice people.... not talking about which is true or bla bla... okay practice standpoint!!!

Answer 1

I think Islam has many rules that people may call restrictions. But since i agree with all of them and see the reasoning behind it, i don't see it as a hassle but more like a blessing!

Answer 2

I'm very curious what you might mean by 'Abrahamic in nature'. The fact that all three link themselves to Abraham and his journeying from Ur etc says precisely nothing about the *nature* of each of the three religions. I don't disagree with your basic outline (other than noting that the 'New Testament' wasn't codified until a few centuries AFTER 45 CE!!), but it misses out a huge amount and thus fails to grasp the enormous differences between the three. Judaism and Islam have a bit more in common than either do with Christianity, but really, if Abraham didn't get mentioned, you'd never have thought they had anything to do with each other. It's like suggesting that Shinto and Zen Buddhism are the same because they both originate in Japan.... Just to note some of the extremely major differences between Christianity and Judaism, that make it completely impossible to consider them different denominations of the same religion: 1. Judaism regards the divine as something completely abstract and non-human. Christianity believes the divine to be present in a real man. 2. Judaism is completely focussed on the here-and-now and trying to live a good life and doing good in the world in order to make life better for everyone. Christianity is focussed on being good and submissive in order to get to heaven after death. 3. Judaism believes that it is just one covenant, a covenant that all Jews are bound by, but that others have their own covenant with G-d and are equal before the divine. Christianity believes that those who don't believe in Christianity are condemned to an everlasting hell. 4. Judaism believes we are born good and have the capacity to do good. Our relationship with G-d is direct. [Most of] Christianity believes we are born with original sin and need a 'saviour' to act between us and G-d. Is this enough to convince you that we are so utterly different that to consider us as one religion is absurd?

Answer 3

Islam and Christianity are probably about equal in sense that they both claim to be the "one true faith". Their views are infallibly true and not subject to question. Anybody who doesn't agree with them is sent to hell by their all merciful God. For Muslims and Christians dogma is the most important thing.

My understanding about Judaism is that there's less emphasis on beliefs and more on practice. In other words how you live is more important than what you believe. In my opinion Judaism is less irrational than Islam or Christianity.

Answer 4

I'm slightly biased towards my own region being the easiest - it's second nature at my age. I am a (Roman Catholic ) Christian.
on the whole they all could use some improvement especially in some of the teachings about women. I think that most modern Priests, Rabbis and Memsahib's (sorry if this is wrongly spelt) should realise that we are all equal these days especially in Great Britain .

Answer 5

Christianity. You have to go forth with no home and nothing in your pockets and face the world and spread the light and truth. You have to take abuse from people without being violent. You have to let them hit you and be nice about it. You have to do twice the work you are expected to do for no pay or rewards. You must love everyone equally. You must give the shirt off your back if asked for it. You must not kill. You must not commit suicide. You must not even injure another person. You must not divorce. You must put God above your mother, father, son and daughter. You must toil from sun up to sun down.

Not easy to do at all.

God and Jesus is a way of life, not some ritual your do like tossing coins to see what the I Ching brings you in a fortune cookie.

Answer 6

Islam

Answer 7

Well I'm not Jewish or a christian so I cant judge how hard they are too follow. I am Muslim and i don't find it hard to follow in the slightest.

Why are people who are not Muslims saying Islam is the hardest. How would they know? They have no clue what Islamic worship includes only hearsay and guesses.

Answer 8

Each religious sect is different. For example orthadox judaism is probably harder to practice then Islam but Islam is generally stricter then a Protestant church, while reform Judaism is probably very easy to practice.

Answer 9

Islam

Answer 10

Islam & Judaism would both be hard to practice because of a lack of a personal relationship with the founder/originator. Jesus Christ of Christianity lives forever and can be worshipped in Truth.

Answer 11

Probably Islam.
