Which One Religion Is True? by Nobody: 3:26pm On Aug 06, 2012
I have observed that people of different
religions are convinced that theirs is the
one true religion. Christians believe
Christianity is the true way, Hindus believe
Hinduism is the way, Muslims believe Islam
is the way, etc etc. How is it that one "gets"
a religion? Excluding converting, isn't the
fact that one is BORN into a family of a
particular religion determine that persons
religion? So if you are born into a Christian
family, you are Christian and if you are born
into a Muslim family then you are Muslim.
You will grow up being taught and perhaps
believing that Christianity is the one True
way to God and all others aren't really the
true way. But then, what if you would have
been born, lets say, a Muslim. So then, you
would be following the "not really true
way". But you wouldn't think of it that way
because you would be Muslim, which you
would be convinced is the true way. My
point is, religion is arbitrary. You were born
into it. You could just as easily been born
someone else. Then you would belong to a
religion that you in your present life are told
is not right. Think about that.
