"...We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know. But the man who loves God is known by God.
So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that an idol is nothing at all in the world and that there is no God but one. For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"), yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.
But not everyone knows this..."
(I Corinthians 8:1-7)
When you have the truth, you don't need any more (image)inations.

Everyone who believes in a god thinks that their god is the one right true and only God. That's obviously not possible. So a lot who "know" they are right are actually dead wrong. They will be in hell with the rest of us.

1. God.
2. Too many coincidences that can't be explained by science.
3. God is the same to many different people....God, Yahweh, Allah, Great Spirit...I don't care what the name is...it's the same loving energy. So, no, I do not reject God's described in other faiths.
Peace, Love, and Blessings

Rejecting god is like rejecting the Easter Bunny. Actually it was harder to accept that the Easter Bunny wasn't real. I mean, hell man, there was so much candy and I had such a soft spot for Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs...

Nope the gods of other faiths are fine.
If I worked out using free-weights, would I reject the results someone else got by working out on the rowing machine?
Same thing.

Its not that i want to be faithless ...
I just dont like the way all religions try to prevent free thought ..
Im happy not having a god and focusing on my self and fellow humans ...
This way i am not being nice because i want to get into heaven or avoid the threat of going to hell ...
Just because i like people ...
faith in humanity on my terms !!!
Isadora ( a few up from me ) makes a great point .. the easter bunny !!!
Lets celebrate the resurection of our lord by stuffing our face with chocolate and worshiping a bunny !!!

Personally i don't believe in a God as in a figurehead but believe that their is something that creates life itself. If people want to believe in other 'Gods' i do not have an issue unless they use their faith as a tool for creating issues.

My God is the One True God of All in All of the Bible, and of every other good and true religion of the world.
God's Spirit dwelling within me, as well as my intimate communion with Him through initiation of Baptism of the Holy Spirit makes me know that God exists, hence I am a Gnostic Christian.
Our One True God of All in All is the God of all faiths, the God of the Universe.

My God is Allah/Yahweh/Jehovah/The One True God
By default, I share the same God as Christianity, Judaism and the rest of the religion out there that accepts the concept of the one true God.

Trusting one master
M't:6:24: No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
M't:6:25: Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
M't:6:26: Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
M't:6:27: Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
M't:6:28: And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
M't:6:29: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
M't:6:30: Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
M't:6:31: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
M't:6:32: (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
M't:6:33: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
M't:6:34: Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
JESUS CHRIST.
THE HOLY BIBLE, KJV.
THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUTH AND THE REST ARE LIES.
