If MOST folks practice a religion in one specific way, is that the TRUE religion? If not, what's the TRUE one?

Answer 1

This is the fallacy of ad popularum....

If the most popular sect of christianity is roman catholicism, does this mean that this is the true christianity?

If most men pick their nose and eat their snot, is this the true behavior of men?

If most people think that the earth is flat, does this make it true?

If most people believe in some sort of god (at least one), does it make it true?

The answer to all the above should be a resounding no for all who can still think objectively.

Answer 2

There isn't any one TRUE religion,if there was where in the name of "HELL" is it ,and do they practice dribble such as what they teach in Sunday Schools,or Churches.
The only way any one "could" live in a whale,was if it were carved out of wood,or been molded out of plaster or plastic
but that wasn't invented in those days? And as far as the Ark is concerned!! that's hogwash too, we all know the
"ET's" came here and did it.Now maybe God himself was an ET? That would explain a few things "Wouldn't it".But
true religion does not exist,brainwashing does and has done for thousand's of years,just listen what comes out of the mouth's of so-called-Christians.JO NA lived in some fantastic Whale,NOAH built an ARK large enough to take all the animals two by two from all over the world,what utter crap
Ive seen a lot of crap on a farm but this is one lot that takes the cake.

Answer 3

No. The majority of people at one time believed the world was flat. Did that make them right?

There is no true religion. Religion is a tool man to control people and to deal with life without the use of logic.

Answer 4

There is no one true religion. Each religion is just one facet of the spiritual. Focus on the religion, if any, that works for you.

It's interesting to compare basic beliefs of different religions. Almost all have certain things in common: compassion, the belief that what you do comes back to you (karma, 'as ye sow...'), etc. So many religions differ mainly in their details.

Answer 5

All are pieces to the puzzle, okay, to put it plainly it doesn't matter how many people say they worship the same way, they don't, every person is different in some way on how they see things, relate to things and or believe in things, so we all worship in our own way according to our own truths, these truths are part of the whole truth, see where I'm going...well maybe you don't, that's okay all you gotta do is ask me or the person closet to you for our piece of the puzzle. One of the biggest problems religion faces today is that we will not speak to each other because we think we already have the whole truth, no human being has that, this is nothing more then arrogance, in order for us to evolve or move closer to knowing the truth that we call God we have to work together on the cosmic puzzle that is the universe. Blessed be. ;)

Answer 6

What is the TRUE painting? Or the TRUE music? Religion has always been one of the humanities. I have no idea why people try to make it a science.

Answer 7

1) If someone practices a religion...I would hope they at least think it is the "true" religion. It would sad if they didn't.

2) The true church of Jesus Christ...is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Answer 10

For Me and My People it is this One

1.Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, give thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things that Wakan Tanka ---Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).
2.Show Respect. Respect means “To feel or show honor or esteem for someone or something; to consider the well being of, or to treat someone or something with deference or courtesy.” Showing respect is a basic law of life.
o-Treat every person from the tiniest child to the oldest elder with respect at all times.
o-Special respect should be given to Elders, Parents, Teachers, and Community Leaders.
o-No person should be made to feel “put down” by you; avoid hurting other hearts as you would avoid a deadly poison.
o-Touch nothing that belongs to someone else (especially Sacred Objects) without permission, or an understanding between you.
o-Respect the privacy of every person, never intrude on a person’s quiet moment or personal space.
o-Never walk between people that are conversing.
o-Never interrupt people who are conversing.
o-Speak in a soft voice, especially when you are in the presence of Elders, strangers or others to whom special respect is due.
o-Do not speak unless invited to do so at gatherings where Elders are present (except to ask what is expected of you, should you be in doubt).
o-Never speak about others in a negative way, whether they are present or not.
o-Treat the earth and all of her aspects as your mother. Show deep respect for the mineral world, the plant world, and the animal world. Do nothing to pollute our Mother, rise up with wisdom to defend her.
o-Show deep respect for the beliefs and religion of others.
o-Listen with courtesy to what others say, even if you feel that what they are saying is worthless. Listen with your heart.
3.Respect the wisdom of the people in council. Once you give an idea to a council meeting it no longer belongs to you. It belongs to the people. Respect demands that you listen intently to the ideas of others in council and that you do not insist that your idea prevail. Indeed you should freely support the ideas of others if they are true and good, even if those ideas are quite different from the ones you have contributed. The clash of ideas brings forth the Spark of Truth. Once a council has decided something in unity, respect demands that no one speak secretly against what has been decided. If the council has made an error, that error will become apparent to everyone in its own time.
4.Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions.
5.Always treat your guests with honor and consideration. Give of your best food, your best blankets, the best part of your house, and your best service to your guests.
6.The hurt of one is the hurt of all, the honor of one is the honor of all.
7.Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family.
8.All the races and tribes in the world are like the different colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Wakan Tanka---Creator they must all be respected.
9.To serve others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been created. Do not fill yourself with your own affairs and forget your most important talks. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their lives to the service of others.
10.Observe moderation and balance in all things.
11.Know those things that lead to your well-being, and those things that lead to your destruction.
12.Listen to and follow the guidance given to your heart. Expect guidance to come in many forms; in prayer, in dreams, in times of quiet solitude, and in the words and deeds of wise Elders and friends.



wahoo!!!
