Does your religion encourage you to compare other religions to your own to find out if yours is true?

Answer 1

The Buddha expects us to question his answers, yes, and to respect the religions of others as long as they're not causing harm and suffering.

_()_

Answer 2

I would say it encourages us to learn as much as we can about everything we can, including other religions, but I don't see how comparing them would prove or disprove one religion true over another, I think that's best answered by just asking God directly.

Answer 3

There is no true religion. If you look back in history. The first known religion was Christianity. But, I am a Christian, a catholic, and we don't hold ourselves higher than anyone. All religions claim to be "the one"

Answer 4

no
it encourages me to respect other religions not to compare
it does encourage me to test my own to find out if it is true though

Answer 5

Yes - agnostic.

Wait - I don't think agnostic is a religion, just a way of thought.

Answer 6

The bible tells me to discern what is of God, and what is not of God. That certainly would include false religions.

Answer 7

The Apostle Paul taught: "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good."

Answer 8

Not at all. We don`t compare ourselves to them, we don`t judge them and we let them know that we are open to communication, not to convert them but to live in harmony with them (Catholic)

Answer 9

Most definately... How else would you find the truth?

Answer 10

No that's why I try to follow Christ teachings
