im going to answer my own question as an example

im Buddhist, i personally believe every religion makes equal sense. I also pray in mosques, temples, churches, and synagogues. my personal view is if even one person believes it and helps them emotionally or helps them be a better person then it is a valuable religion.

what do you think?

My answer is taken from a book written by a modern guru:
'A lot of people are unconscious children of God when they presume to inflict their religion upon other people. It’s the big head that says, “My God is bigger than your God,” or “My religion is better than yours.”
'There is one fact about religion, though: Your religion is best for you right now. That’s basically all you can say about any religion. All you can speak about is your religion, and all you can say is that it’s either the best for you right now or it is not. If it is the best for you, then you should be growing spiritually and enjoying life.
'You should be learning things that help you develop more love and compassion for other people in your family, and those you meet when you’re out and about in your daily life. That’s if your religion is working for you.
'If you’re not doing these things, then find another one. Or leave religion entirely and maybe listen to the voice of nature.
'No matter what religion you belong to, or whether you belong to no religion at all, ultimately you are listening to the divine Voice of God within you – either by intuition, dreams, or direct experience of the reality of the spiritual worlds.'

I think that says it all.

I believe all paths are valid. And I would agree with your answer. I'm a witch, but all religions are good if they help you be a better person, just like you said. The only problem I have is when those religions teach that others are evil or wrong. If they could all accept each other, then there wouldn't be a problem.

I think ultimately, religions are all the same, tools created by man to control others. There are good people in almost every religion, but that doesn't mean that religion is of itself a good thing.

I think that all religions have truth to it, man just make it to where their religion is the rite now (which is key to miscommunication and wars) and it's just that people haven't realized that some religions are the same

I am a Witness of Jehovah ..no other religion comes close...
The bible says there is one faith , one LORD, one baptism

So if there is only one and God's true name is Jehovah...you find out how many other religions use that name.

I find that there is a degree of truth in all religions. Personally, I find Zoroastrianism fascinating.
