Does it really matter who is right or if anyone is right? Isn't the fact that people believe in anything most important?

In response to skeptic: I don't believe its good that they hate others for not being their religion, I do believe its good that theyt have strong faith though.

"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
- John 14:6
Christ is the ONLY way to the Father. Misplaced faith is useless.

Having faith IS the problem. Reality mirrors what you believe is true - you literally live by faith - and changing what you have been taught is true about you and the world that is embedded in the subconscious is not an easy task.
It is the transcending of the learned ego identity and rebirth of or return to being the authentic Self that every religion offers a path or way to achieve. This is called unity. If it is accomplished, reality synchronizes with one's essential nature and purpose.

I'd say have hope in a brighter tomorow without resorting to thinking of it as "faith" that all others not like you will be removed violently as in Rev. 19 by the sword and other jihads against non believers
have belief or confidence in self and maybe seek out your identity and purpose without being told by others what it is so you can serve them

In other words, if I believe that arsenic is harmless, but you believe it is poisonous, one belief isn't better than the other. What matters is that we both believe SOMETHING?? Believing in what is untrue is pointless at best, and may in fact be deadly.

No. Having faith in what is true is what matters. Believing a lie doesn't make it true.
Jesus is the Truth.

Yes I think so. It could be anything, from deities to the human race to yourself... I get so sick of hearing people trying to tell everyone that there is only one "true" faith.

No.
There's nothing inherently superior about simply having faith.

So you're saying it's good that suicide bombers have such a strong faith?
