As you can see, the Christians won't accept that anyone has different beliefs because their bible tells them not to. They're supposed to "spread the word" by whatever method they deem useful.
Personally, I honestly do not care what someones religion is so long as they keep it to themselves.

I wish!! I don't think that will ever happen, but it's a nice idea. It would be better to just accept that we all can believe something different, and it doesn't make us less for what we believe. It would be nice if people could agree to disagree, but there are people who are closed minded and can't understand that you can still be a good person without believing in the same thing they do. It would be nice if we could all just respect each other for who we are. But there are many people who don't think that way, unfortunately. I do agree that the world would be a much better place with people accepting each other for who we are.

I can feel the call of the continuous journey
The pull is of the innerness, that tells me, of whom I am
Just as the season's come and return
I feel that long, long road as the only road
That's pulling me back home
As we become familiar, of whom we are, no matter the story
We can only enter, as whom we were here
No matter what separates we from our purpose
We will be different from our beginnings
As we enter not far from where our journey began
The words are the same
For we are as one with our Spiritual Creator
Only the human experience will remind us of the illusion
In the final chapter of our existence
We cry out to only one
After all the see you there's
We reach for only one hand
As we give up the ghost, we sigh
Creator I've missed you
I no longer cry from within
For I am home
As I've learned
I love you

I think it would be better if we didn't all go around saying how right we are, when we can't all be right. I have no problem with anyone believing anything as long as it doesn't affect me, but really there's just no tolerance, a lot of people think if you don't believe in the same stuff as them that you are ignorant. Guess what? We are all ignorant.

1. I accept that we all have different beliefs.
2. People are allowed to choose whatever path they wish.
3. I cannot agree that having a different belief is good. Especially when it is opposed to what God desires.

Being able to accept others that is both different in appearance and ideology is what Jesus meant when he said:
(John 13:34) A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

I think it is the best thing..to understand and accept that everyone has different beliefs. Even if they are different from our own, who are we to say who's right and who's wrong.

Well, that is a nice sentiment. However, we do not live and die in a vacuum. There is an afterlife and the Bible tells you what is there, and that you must be ready. We are called to warn about this. Whether or not it is heeded is up to the individual.
I care and love people and friends of many faiths. I still warn them out of love and concern, and they know where I come from. I accept them as individuals who God loves, but that does not make their road the correct one. Many are trusting in man-made philosophy that will lead to bondage or death. Jesus told me to be a light to the world. I refuse to put it under a bushel just so I can appear "accepting". My view of being a caring individual is very politically incorrect--I realize.

you did get lovely answers ... nice question by the way !
and yes we all believe differently and its all good
the world would be so boring if we thought alike ... and we would learn nothing from each other
i think it would be only natural to have such differences given how big this world is and how different our cultural needs are
diversity is beautiful

I think it is good that we all have different beliefs so long as it isn't evident that those beliefs aren't destructive.
