Contradictory "truths" can't all be true. There is objective truth. It exists. I believe truth is ultimately God. No lie is of God or ever leads to God. All idolatry is a lie.In my understanding it is only different techniques within the different religions/spiritual practice that are different. Like in How to get in to Heaven or how to realize Nirvana.
So why are people so protective of their belief? Saying "my belief is the right one"
But when looking at the spiritual aspects of all religions, they seek something similar.
No, argumentation might involve logic, but they're not the same thing.There is formal logic or good arguments. Both are logic.
Maybe there is contradiction because the prophets or spiritual masters has been on different wisdom level so their teaching look different, but actually teaches the same truth.Contradictory "truths" can't all be true.

If the same teachings appear different they aren't good teachers.Maybe there is contradiction because the prophets or spiritual masters has been on different wisdom level so their teaching look different, but actually teaches the same truth.
It is not the teaching that change, but the understanding of the teaching by each practitioners. They understand the same words differently because they are spiritually at different wisdom level.If the same teachings appear different they aren't good teachers.

I do not speak only about Islam teaching in this OP.Verse 9:111 nicely explains Islam's technique - "Allah has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allah's Cause, so they kill and are killed".

And as usual, you find one verse out of hundreds of verses to explain your hatred toward islam.
Spiritual advancement is not about killing others, it is about "killing" our own ego.
I do not like your constant attack on Islam. Islam has a huge teaching of goodness, but you only focus on verse you inteprete as evil, it show what you are after.I know. You talked about "different techniques within the different religions", and I gave you one example.
Correct. I could indeed give you hundreds of verses that tell Muslims to hate and/or kill infidels.
Please reread 9:111. It is very much about killing others. Allah says so in plain language.
Which truth is? What is the ultimate truth then?Maybe there is contradiction because the prophets or spiritual masters has been on different wisdom level so their teaching look different, but actually teaches the same truth.

I do not hold the answer to your question, because i am still a seeker.Which truth is? What is the ultimate truth then?

I try to see the good in every spiritual teaching, i do not look for what evil i can find. And i do not practice harming others at all.
I enjoy all spiritual teachings, not just the good in IslamI didn't look for evil in Islam. I opened the Qur'an and it poured out.
You may call me a liar, but the truth is that I decided to read the Qur'an so I could prove that it was a religion of peace. I wanted to be able to debate the "haters" from a position of knowledge. However, those good intentions didn't survive the second page. I was gob-smacked at the vitriol directed towards unbelievers. Enjoy your denial.

Okay, here it is. Some people don't read the Qur'an the correct way like you
and try to leave in peace like some other people. Now what?
There is no "correct way" to read the Qur'an. Just read it. Period.
...
Some take the words 100% litterarly like you seems to do, others see the more hidden meanings of the teaching.There is no "correct way" to read the Qur'an. Just read it. Period.
Obedience to the Qur'an is another subject.
