Quick answer: No. Some people just claim the same (like Hitler). But who knows what lies under their hearts?

I have never experienced it personally, but I would guess if the two religions beliefs were side by side and you had to put a check mark beside the things you believed...I am almost sure one of them would win out on the number of things you actually believe. So my advice would be to check into this on a deeper level and choose the one who you really believe in. Good luck. :-)

Religion is just another crutch to get you through human misunderstandings and fears of the unknown. You can have as many crutches as you want (or need). No one has ever been able to prove that their religion is the only one sanctioned by God.

Any two religions will have some beliefs that conflict. That's why they are two religions. How can a person believe two conflicting statements simultanously? For example - "Jesus is God" and "Jesus is not God". Or "baptism is necessary for salvation" and "baptism is not necessary for salvation".

Yes, and many people are. Most religions are combinations of old religions.

No, because of conflicting beliefs. And if the two religions do not have conflicting beliefs than they're not different religions.

Totaly depends on the religion. Some are absolute - others are not!

Buddhists follow a path through life. Some also worship god(s).

Some religions let you do that like Shinto but most won't.
