Because all other religions ARE false.
The other religions are all false because they teach you CAN please God just as you are whereas Christianity teaches that humankind CANNOT please God just as they are. They need a Savior. (Romans 3:23-24)
The devil wants you to think you can please God as you are so you'll reject Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and end up in Hell in torment with the him, the devil.
It's like this. If you want to destroy an enemy by cutting off their village's fresh spring/water supply and you realize you can't cut it off, you might decide you can at least pollute it with stuff that will keep it from being a fresh spring anymore.
It's the same thing the devil is doing. He can't stop God's Word and the Gospel of Jesus Christ from being preached (which is the only way to eternal salvation), but he CAN offer you alternatives which make you THINK your sins are forgiven and you are acceptable to God when you're not.
Make sense?

Everyone has the right to believe the way they want. Everyone also has the right to disagree about others beliefs, whether it be Christian, Muslim, Pagan, Atheist or whatever. You can disagree without all the hatred and jealousy. I am Christian and I don't Hate anyone. I also don't agree with other faiths, but that doesn't mean the people that believe in these faiths are bad people. They are probably awesome!! So. that is the great thing about freedom, it allows you to agree to disagree. lol. Thanks for the question and have a SUPER day!!

Oh, yeah! That's gonna convince people.
Besides, Christians believe that other religions are false, because Jesus said it first.
Jesus Christ made it clear. "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)
Now, either Jesus told a great lie, was incredibly deceived, or He told the Truth.
Not all roads lead to God, anymore than all roads lead to New York City. Even if you are on a road that leads to God, if you're not driving in the right direction, you are wrong.
Pretty heady stuff for the politically correct crowd who think it's "unfair" to demand a certain thing out of someone, but it was Jesus who said it, and when you're in charge, you get to set the rules.

They have the right to exercise Freedom of Speech. I have it as well, and I say that the vast majority of other religions just don't get it, they're mostly like a bunch of nerds and have lost the way.

I think you are rather ignorant to not state that Some Christians are like that. I don't claim that other religions are false, I respect the beliefs of others.

It's not a Christian invention. These words were told long before Christianity existed. And please note God called himself Yahuweh, not Lord, Allah or whatever...
I Am Yahuweh your God who separated you from the land of Mitsrayim . You were not to know any god except Me, for there is no (‘ayin) Savior besides Me."
In this context ‘ayin means that "humankind is fatherless and incurable without" Yahuweh. All other remedies are "nothing, naught, and lacking."

why do all atheists say all religions are false? Who gives you the right to say what is or isn't false? Why do you have a corn cob stuck up your butt, and can't find something else to ***** about?

Don't forget to put "some Christians" when you are talking on R&S
Generalization is the worst things that commonly happens in here.
Not All Christians like that....

You do know that false means not true, right? If you believe your religion is the sole true one then, by definition, all the rest must be false. Personally, I think they are all false but that's just me.

Human arrogance. They ignore the history of their own church, especially the part where Jesus "became God" in 325 A.D. where it was decided that Jesus was divine... by committee. Kind of makes you wonder about omnipotence. They also ignore the fact that if Jesus had actually declared himself to be God in his time he would have been stoned to death as a heretic, that the Romans did not allow their crucifixions to be taken off the cross, that Jesus couldn't possibly have spoken on the cross because crucifixion is a form of suffocation. There's more, but that's enough to show that history shows that Christianity is a distortion of it.
