I, like many Christians, have done some study on religions.
I have yet to find one which is right and true. I say this, knowing that truth is not relative, but absolute. One may argue, "To each his own.", and while that may be correct, what other people choose over the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is either only a mimicry of truth or something completely false altogether.
Some religions are merely a philosophical lifestyle. Some have a poor imitation of Christianity rolled together with circular reasoning, mythology and legend. Others worship multiple gods, all of whom are merely exalted mortals with limited power, knowledge or awareness. Then, let's face it, there are other religions out there that are just plain, well, out there.
God has proven Himself to me. He has demonstrated His power and love in how He changed me from the very moment I accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. The changes I speak of are the sort that no man can touch - changes of issues I was not even aware of.
Learn about other religions? No problem. But, none are to be followed. None lead to God. That is their attempt, to reach God. No, I am satisfied that God reached me.

For sure, people from other religions can still find God. I've read of peoples interaction with the Dali Lama a Buhddist master or a Guru and they all say just being in the room with these individuals was life changing. The feeling of Grace eminates, and everyone know that Grace is from God.
But, being a Christian is so much simpler; going through Christ.. as a friend recently said: you don't have to perfect the lotus position.

I love to learn. The more I learn about other religions and beliefs the more I realize Christianity is the only one for me!

I have learned other religions. Then after about 20 years of study, I realized that God doesn't want us to be religious. The bible says to be Christian.

Not particularly. The only religions I try to learn about other than Christianity are the non-Christian religions claiming to be Christian. Religions such as JW's and mormons.

Sure. I've attended many non-Christian services, and have studied a number of religions and beliefs other than my own.

Fireball, Edge,and Batgirl are showing the typical attitude of many Christians, they don't care about anything but themselves.Why respect or learn about others when they are wrong and going to Hell,all we care about is ourselves being ruptured and going to the kingdom of Jesus, Hallelujah!!!

I'm not interested in learning them, but I do read books about other belief systems.

NO. Although the history of all religions is fascinating and very educational reading.

I do not care to study them in depth. Why did you not ask this to Buddhists or Muslims? Jews? Why just Christians?
