Most of us are belonging to particular religion because of an accident called birth. Religion needs understanding whch needs some input. Each religion talks about different GODs. It is confusing. !!

GOD has nothing to do with the religion, the latter is created by man according to his undestanding, faith and belief and sometimes to prove the superior nature. THE ALMIGHTY IS 1.

First of all, birth is not always an accident. Mine is not, neither is my son's.
Secondly being born in a certain religion, should not blur the mind, and stop us from questioning what our parents believe, if we are serious about religion.
Lastly, all religions talk about the same God; father of all things. It is the wrong approach people have when they think of God, or interpret the text of their holy books. The three Major religions; Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all Abrahamaic and talk about the same God, call Him Yahweh, The lord, God, Godess, Allah, the great spirit, nature, they are all the same, if you deeply ponder on what the religions are really about.

Religion is mans way of trying to reach God. Christianity was God reaching out for man, Then men made it religious and screwed it all up. Jesus was a radical as was original Christianity The religious right of the day wanted Jesus dead and by the time Jesus was done rebuking the religious right of today they would try to throw him in a nut house. Religion is how men try to make themselves "like the lord most high" That quote is from the devil by the way. True Radical Christianity is not religious but spiritual just like Christ. I'm not saying that no one ever found God in a church . What I am saying is that the church is real ill right now and definitely needs healing. I hope that helps

No, birth had nothing to do with anyone's religions. It's the choice of the parents what religion or culture the child is raised in, not the birth itself. Some parents choose to not raise the child in the parents' faith, for whatever reasons of their own. All religions eventually lead to God, and all Gods are as one God. Whether male or female, and by whatever name, all the paths lead to the One supreme creative force. It's people who give the Godhead different aspects, and make it all the more confusing.

GOD HAS nothing to do with religion,bcoz man is the creator of religion,also birth is not an accident but it is a natural way that nature set up for human reproduction.i belive in god and not in any religion,feel his invisible force on your life,do good deeds,experience his grace.

If what you mean by religion: laws and regulations. . .i.e. 'Do not eat this,' 'Only wear this,' or 'You must take part in this holiday,' and other laws, it does not have anything to do with us because of Christ. We are no longer justified by works, but by faith. We are not expected to follow the laws, for we cannot do so. Our sinful nature...our selfishness...cannot allow us to. But in Christ we may receive God's Spirit and He shall live inside of those of faith. Then we shall overcome our wickedness and become holy, having a likeness of God--knowing good and evil, yet being perfected...so that we shall not perish, but be able to stand before Him blameless, dwelling with the Creator forevermore. Only Jesus can cleanse our conscience and crucify our nature. He allows us to be adopted into the family of God. What other god offers this? What other god calls others to be a part of this astonishing mystery?
The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself." We cannot do this unless we put to death our hatred and vanity within us. We cannot unless God lives within us.
Following Christ is not a religion, it is a relationship. He can only be followed by internal faith.

Friend, there are a lot of voices vying for your attention, so why should you consider Jesus above, say, Muhammad or Confucius, Buddha, or Charles Taze Russell, or Joseph Smith? The truth is all religions do not lead to Heaven just as all roads do not lead to Indiana.
Jesus alone speaks with the authority of God because Jesus alone conquered death. Muhammad, Confucius, and the others molder in their graves to this very day, but Jesus, by His own power, walked away from the tomb three days after dying on a cruel Roman cross. Anyone with power over death deserves your attention. Anyone with power over death deserves to be heard.

God is not many different God for different people. It is the same God addressed differently by different people in their languages.
God cannot be many different to different people. If not, he ceases to be God. GOD is ONE and ONE ONLY, but addressed differently.
. . . GOD, the source of all that exists, the Cause of all that is, was, or ever will be. As GOD is unlimited, HE has many Names.
Allah-Buddha-Jehova-Rama: ALL are Krishna, all are ONE.
God is not abstract; He has both the impersonal and the personal aspects to His personality, which is SUPREME, ETERNAL, BLISSFUL, and full of KNOWLEDGE. As a single drop of water has the same qualities as an ocean of water, so has our consciousness the qualities of GOD’S consciousness ...

Yet man professes to belong to a particular type of faith with reference to particular time and circumstance and thus claims to be a Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist or an adherent of any other sect. Such designations are non-sanatana-dharma. A Hindu may change his faith to become a Muslim, or a Muslim may change his faith to become a Hindu, or a Christian may change his faith and so on. But in all circumstances the change of religious faith does not affect the eternal occupation of rendering service to others. The Hindu, Muslim or Christian in all circumstances is servant of someone. Thus, to profess a particular type of faith is not to profess one's sanatana-dharma. The rendering of service is sanatana-dharma.

Birth is not necessarily an accident.
It depends on the person and thier parents/ personal decisions as to who they worship and what their religion is.
