What would the world look like if religions became friends?

We can be friendly only if our different religious views are not trifled with. Don't you see that in every-day life? Don't Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists work together in governments, offices, industry, colleges and laboratories? Where is the need to make compromises? Faith / belief is a personal thing. Why should it interfere in any other field? Bahais are not being honest. Their universal love is just a sham. They are basically fooling others. Underline mine.

That was well expressed. We do indeed rub shoulders with people of all faiths in our day to day life...at work, at school, at the mall and there is no conflict because our religion does not matter in these places. We are just people interacting in fairly neutral territory. What matters is that a person's religion is their business, and we can speak of religious matters with religiously minded ones if they wish, and even debate the differences among us.....and we can express disappointment towards those who are not living up to the label they wear because it gives our faith a bad name.

Nothing pulls a religion down more than hypocrites who wear their religion as a banner and use it as an excuse to create ill-will with others. Most especially is this so when some have fled their country because of persecution and then used their religion to create division in the country that adopted them. It chafes a lot of people.

If many believe that there is "ONE GOD" who is the Creator of all, then why are there so many religions in the first place? Does anyone ever ask that question?

And how do people express a 'faith' in no god at all, since nothing is "provable" either way?
Why does atheism need a religion? :shrug:

To my understanding as a Bible believer, we humans are divided over religion because we stepped away from the true religion and the true God right at the very beginning....humans wanted to make up their own religion, in line with their own wants and needs....they created their gods 'in their image' to validate their own chosen course....and humans being humans, many just followed along because they didn't want to go to the bother of reasoning anything out for themselves....they just wanted to be part of the group...to fit in.

"Religion in name only" seems to be the most common form for the majority of people in western society...their parents practiced a religion and they were indoctrinated from infancy to 'perform'...so they were never taught to think for themselves or to question any of it. The thinkers among us couldn't wear that, so we did question, and many were convinced that what they were taught was rubbish, and either ditched their former god(s) altogether, or found it easier to transition into a more comfortable form of worship. One that suited them better. I actually see Baha'i as a religion that just wants everyone to get along and worship whoever they wish because its all the same God at the end of the day. All those "messengers" from different faiths with conflicting messages are all supposedly sent by God......why? Just to confuse us? It presents as a "have your cake and eat it too" faith. Nothing adds up.

We all have choices and we are all free to make them. But religion is divisive, there is no doubt about that.....these sites wouldn't exist if that were not so. But informed choice is the only one that matters.....so how informed are we? These sites help us to form our opinions by being exposed to many points of view.

IMO, God does not hide from those who genuinely seek him. But many want to squeeze him into the box that they have created for him, rather than squeezing themselves into the box that he created for them.

I understand what you're saying. But I don't think it's all that true.

People will find other things to fight about. Sure.
But for really big conflicts, huge wars between armies made up of little people? Not so much.

What really happens is this. The political elite want a war for their own purposes. But they don't want to fight it personally. They want someone else to actually man the guns and ships and such.

But they can't just say to the hoi poloi "Go fight a war for my wealth and power and glory!". So they appeal to something bigger. An ideology. Like religion or communism or capitalism or nationalism or something. Wave a flag! Invoke Jesus or Allah or some deity! Yell, "Our way of life! Think of the children!".

That sort of thing.

Otherwise, the soldiers aren't going to be interested in dying and killing. They just won't. They just want to have a nice life with the wife and kids or whatever.

Good people do good things. Bad people do bad things. To get good people to do bad things takes ideology.

Are you old enough to remember the Vietnam war? It was a turning point because blind nationalistic pride was lost on that generation whose motto became....
"What if everyone was invited to a war but nobody came?"

We had Donovan singing "The Universal Soldier" and the lyrics reflect the same thought....

"But without him
How would Hitler have condemned them at Laval?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
He's the one who gives his body
As a weapon of the war
And without him all this killing can't go on.

He's the Universal Soldier and he really is to blame
His orders come from far away no more
They come from here and there and you and me
And brothers can't you see
This is not the way we put the end to war."

https://genius.com/Donovan-universal-soldier-lyrics

If all the soldiers just stopped being soldiers and put down their weapons and went home to their families, then the leaders of the world would have to fight their own battles instead of ruining the lives of those who thought patriotism was worth dying for? How mortifying to realize that so many wars were fought over greed for land and later, oil. Lying propaganda lured the uneducated and indoctrinated into their evil battles. Blood for oil.......and its not only taking human lives in war, but destroying the planet as well. :( How did we (supposedly) intelligent humans ever come to this?
 
If it would become one it would be how it was supposed to be, ONE! We all are one with the belief in the same. Being ONE would bring peace, respect, compassion, mercifulness, gratefulness, and appreciation for the little things to one another.

The world would understand one another without killing each other.

What a beautiful picture

Thank you for reading this entire.

Capitalism would die. Capitalists know that and they promote atheism and cynics. In my opinion. :)
From what I know, the Baha'is would get rid of the extremes of wealth and poverty. And I would imagine many other things that those on the Right would call "socialism."

Lover, but how do you do this?

Most people would love peace. Over a handful don't see peace by unity but by agreed of diversity (those whose faiths do contradict each other).

When we have charity, we do so in the spirit of humanity not the spirit of unity (one spirit/god/religion).

To have peace, we cannot have god (or Brahma or Pagan gods) as a foundation. Foundation needs to be peace not god, bahaullah, Muhammad, and The Buddha. There are no manifestations because we all respect each other's religions by accepting there are no "old" religions of one period and new religions of today. Religions would include Paganism, Satanism and other religions like Druid and, I don't know, Jainism. More than one foundations (poly foundation?).

Is there another way to find peace without compromising each other's religions (drop the old and encourage the new, for example) to do so?[/QUOTE]
What was that John Lennon song that basically said that one of the things we need to have peace and live as one is to get rid of religion. But he was a dreamer.

The reality is... a lot of people have moved away from their religions. Others, like you, have spiritual/religious groups that do accept everyone's beliefs. The Baha'is are so close, but they do believe they are new and their laws and teachings are for today... making the old religions obsolete. Can they lighten up about that? I think some can and do. But they are on the liberal side of the Baha'i Faith.

Where you live, do they talk about religion much? In the US, we are swamped by evangelism and proselytizing it's ridiculous. And christians from all sorts who agree to the name or not do not care.

Most all of the people I become friends with are because we have things we do in common. I belong to an athletic club and play mostly tennis. All kinds of people from all over the world belong to the club Whether Asian, Latin or whatever, we play tennis and get along fine. But rarely, rarely does religion ever get mentioned. One Iranian is so liberal about his beliefs that it is never an issue. One Sikh is friendly to everybody he plays and never talks about his religion.

So what is it that allows us to get along? No one pushes their religious beliefs on anyone else. So can a person that belongs to a proselytizing religion put their religion in the background and not at some point bring it up? Can they become friends with people for reasons other than to try and "recruit" them into their religion. And that includes Baha'is, because they are expected to "teach" the Faith. So how long in a casual relationship will it be before the Christian or Baha'i will feel the need to tell them about Jesus or Baha'u'llah? Once that happens, the relationship is one of trying to convert the person. And, like Aupmanyav says, some beliefs are going to cause problems.

In the world today there are very serious problems between people of different religious affiliation that can very easily destabilise the world and throw us all into another war. The Israeli -Palestinian conflict is one and the Israeli Iranian another. Although these are political problems as well, religious hatreds, intolerance and prejudices are used to create conflict.

You may live in a country where you don’t experience these problems but there are those who suffer daily oppression due to religious persecution and creating friendship between them is of paramount importance in order that they may enjoy the freedoms you enjoy.

So if all the hostile religions became friends and collaborators instead of competitors I think, from personal experience, we can create a far better world than the one we have now.

In many western countries the oneness of mankind is taking a foothold in expressions such as multi-culturalism and interfaith so the foundations for a prejudice free society is being laid and built upon. I believe this needs to happen everywhere for our world to achieve lasting peace but it’s a good start.

As far as the need to hear about God, religion, Christ or Baha’u’llah I believe I can only speak for myself. For me hearing about Baha’u’llah saved my life after six suicide attempts. His teachings gave my life hope and happiness and a stable lifestyle and marriage. I needed these teachings and am eternally grateful to those Baha’is who taught me about Baha’u’llah.

But getting back to the topic, friendliness instead of hostility and wars between religions I believe would go a long way to achieving true brotherhood and peace on this planet.

They'd probably be less wars. People can marry and be intimate with who they choose to be with without Christian US laws to say otherwise. People may support their expression of love rather than redefiing it. Love is love?

There'd probably be more interfaith conferences. I went to a couple with my church. They put it together. It was nice.

People wouldn't "love their enemies" because there would be none. The word would not exist.

Friendliness spirit isn't the same as the creators spirit. If all people where friendly, our spirits would work together. Humanity is like that.

How does one make humanity one without changing the core beliefs of theistic religions?

They would need to compromise their/your religion to have the foundation one/unity

Loving your enemy is a religious concept. It doesn't work well in secular cultures.
Hitler's mother was Catholic, Stalin was an Orthodox student, Mao and Pol Pot
came from Buddhist backgrounds. In fact nearly every single monster of the 20th
century came from a religious background as religion was still quite strong up until
the 1900's. About 85-90% of all the mass killings of the 20th Century were secular
in nature - Communism alone was responsible for about 150 million dead.

Actually it already has been happening but not with all denominations. I've been involved with interfaith activities here in the Detroit area for several decades now, and I love it.

Hi. I’ve just recently established friends with some incredible Catholics. I go to mass with them sometimes. They come over we eat and they even painted my door!! I’m tired of the stigma people have invented about people from other faiths as they are just people like you and me and beautiful people at that.

The only way I believe to end this stigmatising and demonising is to mix and mingle as equals and love one another and that, will eventually remove prejudices.

I recently had the privilege of having dinner with a visiting Bishop from India and two priests and they were so warm and welcoming and we served them dinner.

Great to hear you are enjoying it as much as I am.

I think people would just find something else to fight about.

We were created in the image of God so don’t you think that eventually we will fulfil that potential and become loving towards all like God is loving to all?

Well. It is great thinking.

fact remains though that 93% of all wars recorded were motivated by non religious motivations. So if religions unite like you have said, it will be much better, yet people will remain warring.

True I agree but with a lot of wars religion gets used as a method or tool to create hatred and demonise the enemy. When the Palestinians lob missiles at Israel it’s the religious leaders spurring them on. Same with the crusades and religious persecution of minorities. Even the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima they got a priest to bless their mission.

The holocaust. Just because they were Jews they got slaughtered. Religion gets dragged in a lot to create an us vs them scenario making it easier to see the other guy as the ‘enemy ‘ instead of a fellow human.

Everyone would live in peace... until Islam killed everyone and took over.

The Quran is basically written so even if all other religions got along, they see friendship as weakness and refuse to play along.

Myth: Islam is Tolerant of Other Faiths

If we want everyone to live together in peace, the very first thing we must do is expose and shame those who do not have that as their goal. The more people who refuse to live near a river in Egypt (denial), the more people who make public ANY religion's abuses, the less likely they can get away with them, and the more likely they are of actually treating other religions fairly.

The other thing that would work is to establish official religions for each country and forcibly evict those who aren't playing ball. With sensible boundaries, religions could coexist by staying on their own zones.

Assyria is Christian, Iran is Zoroastrian, Israel is Jewish (oust the Muslims that took over here), Europe is Christian ranging from East Orthodox to Catholic to Protestant, Russia is Orthodox, Africa is pagan except for Ethiopia, Japan is Buddhist/Shinto, China is Buddhist/Confucian/Taoist, America is Christian, India is Hindu, and Muslims are mainly in Pakistan, Turkey, and the Middle East. If people from Iraq tried to convert people from Iran, it should rightly be treated as an aggressive action.

We have peace when people have no excuse to visit other countries aside from tourism.


Hi Samantha. If you look closely and study the Holy Books I believe you will find that there is an enormous discrepancy between what these Sacred Books teach and what their respective leaders preach and that the antagonism, hatreds, prejudices and hostilities all emanate from the leaders not the scriptures.

For example the Quran Sura 2:190 says...

Do not attack anyone unless first attacked. God does not permit such injustice.

But we see today leaders promoting aggression against the express law of their Holy Book.

And this goes for many religions that people get drawn into wars and conflicts because they follow what their leaders tell them instead of what the Holy Book teaches. Often the followers have never read their own scriptures so are easily manipulated.

The solution lies in independent investigation of truth, That is, not to believe the words of another but to search out the truth for kneself using ones own eyes and mind and then one can see what the reality is. I belive if every Muslim independently studied the Quran using only his or her own mind and not up the Mullah then violence would become impossible as the Quran does not teach it but only self defense. However, if one has not read the Quran and follow blindly whatever the leader tells them then they are open to manipulation. This is called blind imitation where the followers blindly imitate what the leaders tell them.

Christians too have had so many wars when Christ clearly forbade it. Because they followed their leaders instead of what Christ told them here...John 18:11

Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus. Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath:

No religion teaches violence or wars but religious leaders with political motives do and so the only protection is to educate people to see with their own eyes and think with their own minds not the eyes of others.


As it is written by Baha’u’llah

“The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice; turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By its aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not through the eyes of others, and shalt know of thine own knowledge and not through the knowledge of thy neighbor.”

If we all do our own research instead of blindly believing what others tell us then we may find what we are being told is not entirely correct.

Be your own guru
IMO, God does not hide from those who genuinely seek him. But many want to squeeze him into the box that they have created for him, rather than squeezing themselves into the box that he created for them.
I do not know any God. I neither want to squeeze him into a box nor want myself to be squeezed into a box. I am better free. Creation and evolution are matters of science and science is working on them refining their theories.
For me hearing about Baha’u’llah saved my life after six suicide attempts. His teachings gave my life hope and happiness and a stable lifestyle and marriage.
Good, Bahaollah's teachings helped you, but why do you need to trumpet for him? Other people have other views. Can't you keep your views to yourself? You keep on doing that as if you are a paid agent.

Hey guys! The title I really wanted but it wouldn’t fit was...

“What would the world look like if the followers of all religions consorted with each other in a spirit of friendliness and fellowship”? (Baha’u’llah) What would it look like on the ground?

One example I know of is a recent and current experience .........

A few months ago we met a couple of beautiful Catholics who have become close friends. They visit us daily and we go out with them and to mass also sometimes. Neither of us has encroached upon the others right to practice their own faith and beliefs while both visiting each other’s churches unasked. We love mixing with them and going to mass with them and they also have occasionally visited the Baha’i Temple in Sydney.

We get invited to birthdays and they are always bringing food to us. And we have met dozens more wonderful people through them. Also we have made good friends with the local priest and we have become collaborators instead of competitors.

I am finding that the effect goodwill between religions produces is amazing and from this personal experience I am led to believe that it’s not happening because we, human beings are not trying hard enough to make it happen.

If we don’t make a deliberate effort to improve relations between religions, races and nationalities then who is and how is the world going to become a better place if we don’t make the effort?

I believe it’s up to you and me to change our world through being free from prejudice and becoming a true friend to all humanity and if we don’t do it that nothing will change.

What do you think? Can we change our world if we all become lovers of all humanity and religions by our actions and not just words?

So imagine then. What would our world look like on the ground if all religions became friends?

What, I've encountered all this before. Now let me think, oh, I got it now!!

They are only trying to CONVERT you! And so long as you keep going to their church services and listen to them telling you over, and over, and over... about THEIR Catholic religion, they will be your "friends".

And if you doubt what I'm saying, then tell them that you do not want to go to THEIR church services or talk about religion anymore, and see how quickly they discard you.

Sociology of religion.

Brother, even atheism is dragged into motivation. So is religion. But predominantly its money and power. Sometimes even simple personal hatred because one bride was someone elses girlfriend earlier. This is the history of wars in the world.

If you want to drop a bomb killing 200,000 people and you bless the bomb, peace between religions will not stop you. You wish to drop it anyway.

If it is a religion, then it is just one more and for that reason does not help anyone.


If you compare it to religions you may or may not dislike, I can see that. If you see religions different in their own right, than some religions do help others and some don't. They're not (and shouldn't) be based on one criteria of "does it help". It's a fact that not all religions (which means all over the world) aren't like that. They have their dogma (practice, tradition, whatever) and all of that but only a hand few I know are unhealthy for people and bring unhealthy results.

I never heard of Unitarians coercing people to believe what they/we do because there is so much variety, that would be silly. That, and we don't believe "many rays, one rainbow" type of thing. So, it really does depend on what people put into it not expecting what the religion should give you-then leave it when it's not to one's liking.

@loverofhumanity

It's logical, regardless my disagreement, that you'd want/think that one day one god will unite all of us to him therefore having peace.

To make it more distinct.

1. If you have a circle of Wiccan, Hindu, Christian, atheist, and Bahai. Each person has our respective beliefs and morals.

One humanity means:
We are all different but we are part of one circle; that is fine.
We all agree to that (in an ideal world).

2. In order to achieve this above, no one is in the middle of circle; no one needs to be.

We do not need anyone to be in the middle to have peace.

3. Christian, JW, bahai, and the like put their god in the circle.

This god, thereby, defines the lives and foundation of the people surrounding it. As a result, ALL THREE have broken the peace of humanity for which they seek in the future or waiting for in judgement.

4. In order to have peace per your OP in humanity, NO ONE can be in the middle of circle. We must learn how to make union among our differences without compromising our faith "and of others" to do so.

It is hard, yes. That's why people need prophets, manifestations, saviors, and the like. AND it's not impossible.

5.
But the way to have peace is to respect this disagreement
Don't accuse others they are wrong for not needing a savior
Do not say people are practicing old beliefs thereby contributing to disorder

Since you cannot do that per your religion, how do you find peace without telling people they are wrong?

(You don't have to say "you are wrong" itself. It's in all abrahamic religions and most honest ones actually admit that respectively)

If you follow the above?

The foundation is our common humanity and is quite easily achieved. Just like we all learned love of country, this is just being extended to see all humanity as our country so accepting all people as citizens of one homeland, Mother Earth.

Through international solidarity, trade and our international relations a new interconnectedness is joining us together as one human race that wasn’t there in previous ages. Things like the internet are making borders obsolete and turning our world into one country with us all as it’s citizens.

What you say is true and correct. It’s about accepting our diversity that we all think and believe differently. Our common humanity is what unites us not that we must all be or believe the same. It’s being able to accept each other the way we are that will unite us.
