Its a clever device that uses round arguments to prove itself.
There are 10,000 Religions in the world. Roll a 10,000 sided dice and see which one you get. If it is the wrong one, you are going to hell. Good luck Buddy!

i was born in a Muslim family and i hadn't really thought about what i was taught before i became a teenager(thought i could live my life without a curtain belief) but that was when i started to get anxious about this and started believing in islam like i had never been a Muslim before.now i strongly believe it's the best religion and have many reasons for this.many people don't care about their religion and dont bother do research.i think the best way to find the right way is to start from not believing in anything and then studying the most popular religions to see which is the best.u can ask converts their reasons for doing so and then judge them

Jessie:
If you were born a Christian, be a good Christian.
If you were born a Muslim, be a good Muslim.
a Hindu, be a good Hindu.
The best way to decide what is best for you is to study all the religions and then decide. It can be fun to learn about them. In the mean time, honor your parents and be involved in their religion. You may find that you were born into that religion for a reason. I am Christian because I follow the teachings of Jesus and have belief in him and his messages. I do not hold to one denomination because I study all religions as much as possible and I find many things that are to me good and right. There is good and not so good in all of them and the main thing to me is that you are actively pursuing God and his righteousness. If the bible leads you to him then this is good.
If a Rabbi leads you to him then what can be wrong with that.
I'm sure Jesus will not stand in your way. Don't be hard on yourself for questioning. You will gain knowledge and wisdom.
Those who do not question only learn what they have been taught. For some, this is all they need. I need more of a connection with God and the truth about him/her/all that is.

Hey there, I personally believe that one's religion is of a personal nature. We are unique in our differences. My suggestion to you is to research thoroughly the religions, sects, denominations and come up with your own opinion of which one gives you the most guidance and feeds your spirituality best. Don't be surprised if you find that more than one suits you and your needs. And in that case there is nothing wrong that in the good that it serves.
For instance, I am christened Methodist. I practice Tao. I certainly do not see how practicing Tao detracts from Christianity. Its a beautiful combination and balance.
There is a lot of research in this for you. Again, religion is of personal preference to an individual's needs and beliefs. If you do your research, you will be surprised at what you will learn. Enjoy!

The true religion is:
1. Worship only one God: Allah. Do not worship others before God as God said in the ten commandment
2. The guidance, the Holybook is still origin/pure. Not contaminated by human hands or has different copies.
3. It is make sense.

I would suggest that you visit the website www.islaam.ca . It is a wonderful website which provides authentic information about Islaam. And quite a few people involved with that website are themselves converts to Islaam. Perhaps their perspective will help you.
Since you are a Christian let me just ask you a few questions do you really believe Jesus (peace be upon him) was the Re-incarnation of God? Do you believe that he was the Son of God? Do you think God has sons? Perhaps your parents "believe" in these concepts. But you are responsible for your beliefs.
We Muslims are on the moderate path. We don't believe as the Jews that Jesus was a liar. May Allaah(Arabic word for God) forgive me for even producing the accusations of the Jews. Nor do we believe in Trinity or that Jesus was God or Jesus was Son of God,etc.
We believe Jesus - peace be upon him, was a great Prophet of Allaah and he was a Muslim and he practised and preached Islaam. And he prophecized the coming of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon both of them.
Here is a small booklet by a one of the Seniormost Islaamic Scholar of Saudi Arabia translated by a ex-Christian. http://www.al-ibaanah.com/cms/pdf_files/56.pdf

hi jessie,
well there is many people who ask the same question as u do, what i will advice u to research all the religion and choose whichever u think will lead u closer to the god,but what i will advice to u is try to read holy quran, i am not saying it because i m muslim but i have found peace with it, i am born muslim but as a child i was not much concern with my religion but when i started praying and reading quran i found that it has each and everything for human,first allah says pray to him alone and obey his command ,the same thing is written in bible,vedas,or book of jews but they change the contents according to their needs but quran is still unchanged.
or u can go to some islamic websites and ask the questions u want to know about islam or u can contact me for any help
and beware of false and fake islamic websites.

Somebody gets an idea of how to live a good life. Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed...they tell some people who tell some people. Pretty soon you have a following. These people need constant affirmation, a pat on the back, "you're right, me too!". This leads to trying to disprove or demonize those who disagree.
Religion is for followers. Faith is for people who can think.

Well your not going to get many honest, objective answers here. Christians will tell you that their little religion is numero uno and Islam thinks they are top dog. Here is the key to know, you don't need religion. What you need is to have Unconditional Self Acceptance, that means accepting all your faults as well as your strengths equally without judgment. That seems to work for me

Each person has to choose the religion that best suits his or her temperament. Sometimes that search takes a few years. Essentially all religions are just different ways of reaching the same truth.
