I believe that all religions have something right, but all religions are mostly bunk.
It's like, the truth is a giant mirror, and every religion has a little piece, but we have to put all of our truths together in just the right way to be able to see what’s behind it.
It's also like a mirror because religions actually reflect more of fallible human interpretation rather than absolute truth. And because WE are holding the pieces, that's the majority of what we see. Even when we tilt it to the sky, the clouds are only in the background - we, as fallible beings, are what can be seen in the foreground of every religion practiced on this earth.
The best we can do is follow what we personally find to be plausible, reasonable, sensible and logical, and let everyone else do the same.
My truth may not be the same as your truth, and because everyone has a little bit, I wouldn’t want to trade mine for yours, because then we’ll be missing a piece, and we can never complete our giant mirror.

Possibly. Well, there is a 'God' anyway, even if there is no God. So either way there is a God. get it?
Let me explain
Something is eternal and without 'beginning' and without 'end' with or without religion. Even if its the multiverse or time
There is something that has more power over the humans and all things in nature, Natural Selection or 'Nature' itself. Not one of us decided to have a brain.
Any true knowledge can only be knowledge of facts that already existed before it was learnt. So knowledge is already in the universe. All the knowledge of everything is in the universe.
So either way, there is something that deserves the recognition of being God. just none of the theologies maybe, and not a personal God Of course that would mean that this God is completly comprehensible,well eventually, and only through all humans.

If there was a god and NO religion was right, what would be the point? It would obviously not be a god who cared for his creation enough to give it instructions on what is the right way to live.
You might as well believe in the great cosmic sneeze, because there would be no hope of life beyond this one. That kind of god would not care for your life, hopes, dreams, happiness, or anything you cared about any more than he cared for a speck of dust.
Would such a god go through the trouble of making a planet as nice as this one? Would such a god go through the trouble of giving you a mind to think with and even bother to question his existence?
However, if there is one religion that is right, wouldn't it be prudent to find it?

God, he/she/it, is perfect, we can all agree on that, right? Good. Don't worry atheists, I know, I know, god doesn't exist, science does, in that case, science is perfect, right? Heck, my oldest brother seems to be a Mathist, if that's how you see the universe as being ordered, either by divine forces, science, what have you, there you go.... oops, tangent, sorry.
God = perfection
Human = imperfection
Holy books/organized religion = perfection interpreted by the imperfect, and therefore imperfect by nature
Perhaps the perfect combination of beliefs from every imperfect religion there is would be the "perfect" religion, but then again you have to consider that we're not perfect, so I know that I don't know the one right way. Love thy neighbor, let ye among you with no sin, etc., etc., all very pretty and nice, but in reality, a good deal of the people who claim to be followers of these teachings don't follow them. To be christian is to strive to live in a way that Christ would accept and understand. It's been a while, but I don't remember good ol' J.C. telling people that they were going to hell or anything.......

I do think that God exists, and I don't think that any religion has it right, but we have to remember that religion is man made ,and I can't imagine a higher power ordaining all the hate and confusion that exist today, but eons ago, they took people out and stoned them to death, or gouged their eyes out etc, being that we are mere humans I don't think we are going to get it right.
I am puzzled by some of the things I read in the bible, I am taking things out of context because I don't know where in the bible it says, "I HAVE NOT COME TO BRING PEACE, BUT A SWORD."
and the other one is "THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND",
which to me means, this is it.
I think the general thread in most of the churches, is to teach love,but some how that message gets lost.

First of all, yes, I do believe God exists....I know it! Religion will save no one. A relationship with God will. The beliefs of a true religion will follow the commandments of God. Since the Bible is God's Word I wonder why you would threaten to report someone for quoting it. The only ones going to heaven will be keeping ALL of God's commandments! Revelation 22:14

Yes I believe that God exists, but I don't think any of the currently existing religions have it right. Thats why I came up with my own religious beliefs.

It's an extremely amusing idea. While I think most logical arguments put some serious problems out that make the existence of any "traditional" deity improbable, with infinite alternative possibilities, the odds of any given religion being correct are infinitely small.

I know God exists and the Gospel of Jesus Christ exists on the earth today, but as you know all Churches are lead by men and therefore subject to the fallable nature of man

I dont think you can find a right answer to that question. Some ppl say that god is just a way to explain the unexplainable, some cultures believe in god cause they think he controls their destiny and so on.
This argument is never ending.
