Why is your religion the right one and everyone else's is the wrong one?

Answer 1

My spiritual path is the right path for me at this stage in my life. The root of the word religion means quite simply to re-connect or re-align oneself with God. It has nothing to do with the institutional or organized church, which is not my path or way of connecting with God.

I would never say that my path or "religion" is the only right one. That would be the height of arrogance. That would be extremely shortsighted.

I believe that all religions or spiritual paths have some piece of the larger truth, so I am not putting down religion. If you read my bio, you will see that although I follow the teachings of Christ, I also study and practice the teachings of the Buddha and I am open to what I can learn from all faiths. I just don't think anyone has the right to tell another person how he or she should practice his or her faith or relate to God.

Answer 2

Different religions are like a cup through which people enjoy the drink of spirituality. But must understand that content are more important than container. People who are obsessed with container (pseudo religion) becomes ignorant and fanatic. Ignorance creates duality whereas religion objective is to creates unity at universal level.

Concepts and logics are created by mischievous mind and they are always different. Any mental concept (pseudo religions), which creates division or structure, is an idea against spirituality. In fact, road of spirituality starts, where religion ends.

Different religions are like different roads, leading to the same Truth. In the initial stages, religion can help us to understand Cosmic Consciousness, the way a stroller helps a kid to learn walking. The delicate plant of spirituality can be fenced by religion, which enables the plant to withstand with harsh weather of materialism. Fence (religion) without plant (spirituality) is meaningless.

Answer 3

What we learn from childhood from parents, teachers, religious leaders every one says the same thing and the Devine Revelaions confirms what we are taught, we learn to believed it to be the 100% true and whatever opposite we hear feels absolute wrong and lie.
You can call it brain washing but most people will continue believing what they learned all their lives.

But intelligent people with God given gift of analytical ability can read, think, research and find the truth if there is a flaw in the knowledge that was given to them all their lives. On the light of this fact I see Muslim all over the world never change their religion except very few do and most of them who did
convert as Christians were either never fully learned about Islam, or were mentaly not stable or lived longer in Christian society and were gulliable.

But out of Christians those who convert are mostly very intelligent people. Christian preachers, scientists, professors, historians, writers and men of high caliber have converted as Muslims. Because they found faults in Christian beliefs and were attracted to Islam for its simplicity, its close to nature, its giving feelings of being true, its teachings of equality of all humans regardless of color, race or national origin and its teachings that make more sense rather than beliefs like Catholicism based on faith even though it doesn't make any sense. For this reasons lots of Catholics abondon this faith when they grow up.

Answer 4

I don't recall saying my religion was the right one and everyone else's was wrong....

I do think however, that my religion is the right one for me.

Answer 5

None are universally right and none are universally wrong. Everyone has a belief system that works for them. It's very self-centered for people to believe that the people who don't believe the same thing that they believe get punished by the god that they believe in.

Answer 6

My disbelief is mainly based on historical facts and the origin of the concept of religion (among other reasons), in addition, I also disbelieve in human notions as any credible source for me to willingly and blindly place my faith on, especially to the level of it affecting my entire life.
I have friends and family of different faiths/beliefs, and although we may not share views, I think that each person seeks and finds their own path towards realisation and fulfillment.
My path is mine to tread, I don't demand or expect for anyone else to walk it with me.

Answer 7

Everyone wants to think that they have the right religion. Basically, people want to think that they are right about things in general.

But for a Christian, the Holy Spirit bears witness to us and others on what is right. It's because of the Holy Spirit that we even care in the first place.

Answer 8

I don't believe my religion is THE right one. I don't believe anyone has the right one. As a matter of fact, generally speaking, I think we all have it wrong.

Answer 9
