I just want to hear from Christians who don't think Christianity is the only religion. I need at least 10. Trying to disprove my own stereotypes here. Also, I am trying to encourage the rational, silent majority of Christians to come out of the woodwork and show that the outspoken minority of Fundamentalists do not speak for all Christians.

Right, I mean Christians who think that people of other religions can also get into Heaven, or won't go to Hell just for not being Christian.

Christianity is not the only valid religion. That's absurd. I'm a Christian, and have studied many other religions. I've found validity in quite a few religions aside from my own.

I know I may sound like heretic to Christians, but religion was made by man an not by God, what "religion" is doing is labeling people and increasing the hate against those who are not "the same" as you. But I think we are all the same to God's eyes, even if we are not in the same religion. I was born catholic, raised catholic, with relatives and friends from several religions, why would I hate my own blood just because they practice other believes, no I love them and accept them as they are, I think that is the main thought God has given us, no matter the religion.

Of course Christianity isn't the only religion, there are thousands. I think what you meant to say is, you're trying to find Christians who do not think that Jesus is the only way to the Father in heaven.
If you do, these people will not know the bible very well. That will be the same with all your questions, by the way, and I mean no offense by that.

That would not be biblically correct to say any other religion, but Christianity is real! Because no other religion believes the bible the way we do. Hence Christian...meaning people who believe in Christ and follow him! But i Can not say any other religion is real, because Christ said....
..."I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 NIV
Anyone Christian that says that other religions are real... Haven't read the bible or... the verse above.

I don't think Christianity is the only religion. The only religion with any sizable following I've thought was invalid, is Scientology.

I'm a Christian, and feel that there are many truths that can be learned from other religions. I don't feel that belonging to a non-Christian faith group automatically consigns a person to a ringside seat in Hell.

My husband wishes there were more Christians like that. He thinks the idea that there's only one way to Heaven is phenomenally unfair.

Christianity Need not be the only valid one.
My reasons:
*Christians have gone away from the tenets of Christ and Bible.
*In the case of apostacy Christianity is much ahead of Others.
*Christians have gone away from Monotheism, and there is no difference between them and others.
*Bible says every soul will be saved, but there is a special place for devout follower of Jesus.
