It seems to me personally that many religions like to teach theirs is the only way....
Why is this?
ideas such as
"The Catholic Church, established by Christ, alone possesses the fullness of truth, and it is our duty and great privilege to share that truth with others."
The Spoils: 8:38-40
"Tell the unbelievers that if they mend their ways [abandon 'unbelief'/'idolatry'] their past shall be forgiven; but if they persist in sin ['idolatry'] ...Make war on them until idolatry is no more and Allah's religion reigns supreme."
no ne may reach the father through ceptmthrough the son,....
etc there are many examples....
Why DOES religion preach seperatness and exclusivity? why does it teach that ONY MY WAY IS RIGHT?
Whereas Hinduism for isntance...acepts ALL religions....
Why are people so arrogant they assume that they and ONLY they have the "truth"????
Of course Relgion is far from solely guilty in this....atheism is too...in fact so are many things....
Is there reay such a thing as Objective truth?
Is the moon made of cheese?
:bonk:
When we have great power we must give it away, a cup can ony be filed if it is emptied
