Is there one, true religion that is better than all the others? No. I don't believe there is. All religions seem to have similar viewpoints. Each group seems to agree we had to come from somewhere (that someone or something had to have created us). All religions seem to want to point out that we have to be kind, loving, and understanding of other people and their different viewpoints, but I do not think that any one religion found on earth is the true religion.

Neither do they follow this teaching of understanding of others or not judging others. We are all guilty as charged of judging someone for thinking differently than ourselves. Even I have gotten into a huff from time to time about someone not understanding my view point, but that only shows that I obviously didn’t want to hear their viewpoint either. What makes one person more correct than another?

There are plenty of writings out in the world. Many people say the bible is proof of Christ being the Messiah or that he existed, but the truth is no writing proves anything. Only physical evidence such as bones or fossils would prove that, and seeing how he rose into heaven physical body and all as the bible states, there is no physical evidence other than the bible, a book written by many different authors. If we are going to use the bible as evidence that Christ was who he said he was, then I guess the book of Mormon is true too. Not everyone agrees with that Ideal and I can tell you why.

I’m really not trying to offend anyone here, so please hang with me. There is other evidence that Christ existed, but nothing to prove he did the things that were claimed to have taken place in the bible. A good question is what proof other than the bible do we have that he did what he said.  As scientists and scholars have proven of most people in those days, not many people had knowledge of potions, illnesses, and other such things in those days.  However Christ was quite knowledgeable it would appear.  He healed many people according to the bible, and that is a great thing.  There have been many such men/women throughout the history of human kind, but none get as much recognition as Christ does by the Christian community.  Maybe Christ was exactly who the Christians believe he was.  Maybe he wasn't.  There are so many what ifs.  I say let the Christians be Christians, let the Jews be Jews, let the Muslims be Muslims, let the Buddhist, Wiccans, Tao, etc be who they are,
