There would be a shortage of beer as demand for it outstripped supply.

More seriously, there would be many, many spiritually unsatisfied people because no one religion fits everyone -- just as no one shoe size fits every foot.

Sorry to say, but Armageddon is the war, when Jehovah God actually shows people there is only one religion to be had as such and that is the one that follows and supports him, but it wont be religion,, more a better way of life

So many religions are simply so many ways to God or to realizing the ultimate potential of man. Many think it would be wonderful if there was only one religion (let that religion be my religion!) for all mankind. But I think rather than strive for a single universal religion (maybe by smothering all who disagree) we should, through our educational system, seek to create Man with a universal mind - a mind which would accept and celebrate all the varieties of man's ingenuity. In other words, we should stress on a liberal education.

Friend Yes Man,

It is already happeing.
NOTHING is happening due to it.
why?
Life is always in a flux, it keeps changing; so does our beliefs, faiths etc.
The process is so slow that we do not even notice it but CHANGE is always happening. CHANGE is the only thing that si permanenet but we do not realise it.
Though your thread mentions about *WORLD RELIGION* but you have digressed.
This is also true that we as humans are moving towards ONE WORLD, ONE RELIGION.
that will be broadly true as differences will remain till huamns remain in their MINDS.
love & rgds

That's the point.

People need an outgroup to hate. If everyone was the "in-group" in terms of religions, then we would use different categories to hate others. Racial categories. Affluence Categories. National Categories.

Different categories, same hate.
