What's the most probable scenario. That one religion is right, some religions are right, all religions are right, non of them are right, or there is no god or gods. The world would make more sense to me if non of them are right, or if there is no god/gods at all.

I agree that all religions have some truth, but is their one that is completely right, or are they all wrong in one way or another, or are they all completely wrong.

If you choose the one that is right for you, then are you O.K. with the idea that much of it could be wrong?

I think the most probable scenario is that *most* religions have at least some truth. We may have a different name or interpretation for a higher being/force/etc but it really is the same being for all of us.
I do believe that one religion has the most truth but of course I do. I follow that religion.
EDIT: Yeah, I would be ok finding out my religion is wrong. I'm capable of admitting that I very well could be wrong. I have no proof of my beliefs. In fact, there is ample evidence proving my religion wrong. I choose to believe anyway. I don't believe in a punitive God. I believe in a God who will know that I did my best and that I thought I was doing the right thing.

There is no one right religion. But that doesn't mean that following a religion is wrong. People have the right to follow the faith system of their choice. I think that if a god does exist it wouldn't be concerned with what religion you chose to follow. People just need to learn to accept one another and to always strive to do their best. I don't think that "god" has human characteristics, however people tend to superimpose their flawed belief systems onto their deity.

I wouldn't bother worrying about which one is right, they all are to an extent. It is more of a matter of which religion is right for you. The true Divine is too vast to understand by any one of us. Take time to look around and find which one suits you best. If none of them do, then don't worry about it.
Blessed Be )O(

Religion is not of God, but a bottomless pit.
Joh 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

I believe they're all wrong, but that Buddhism is the closest to being right. Buddhism focuses on improving the self rather than recruiting followers, and that's something I can get behind. However, the supernatural elements of nirvana and enlightenment are things I simply can't defend as being possible.

All religions are man made, therefore flawed, therefore wrong. Man is incapable of comprehending all that a divine being is, and arrogantly tries to pretend to know the will of god. This arrogance has lead to every false religion in existance.....and every religion is false.

All religions are right because people can find out which one is best suited to them. Catholic is best suited to me because God is forgiving and He loves me because I came to Him with love, faith and belief. I trust in God to help me when I need it. God bless you.

dear friend,
there's absouloutly one God,or who created the whole universe &who created us?&he made those religions for us to worship him &thank him for everything,all of them are right,BUT when a human interfere with them&change some of its rules,you'll feel that it's wrong..
so i think if you really want to follow a reliogion &believe in it,you should read the holy books &you yourself who decides which one to follow..u should read them all with out bias &just then,you decide..
