If you could make one religion true, which one would it be?

[QUOTE="N30F3N1X"]

They are all true.

MetalDogGear

My religion is that two mutually exclusive statements can both be true.

Greek Mythology, definitely.

MetalDogGear

Yes because Minotaurs, Hydras and Cyclops running wild would be awesome...

[QUOTE="N30F3N1X"]

MetalDogGear

*yawn* Pathetic trolling attempt.

The idea of being able to create religion is absolutely terrifying...,.

Imagine diplomacy in a world where absolute truth, differs by region.... 

I'm depressed now.....

Jainism. It has weird teachings, but none of them are particularly harmful to people (well, aside from the zealous fasting, but that's an endeavor undertaken willingly).

Your original statement is a pathetic trolling attemptMetalDogGear

Nah, you just have an extremely shallow understanding of what philosophy and religion "mean".

Know that your ignorance is not any different from the one religious fanatics have. The world is colorful, unlike what you and they may think.

What the?
The only right answer would be a religion that would get us all to paradise or heaven, guaranteed.

the native american one with the happy hunting grounds is probably the only one i would want to have  anything to do with.

the big religions afterlives look pretty stupid to me i have no clue why anyone would want to go there.

the muslims with their  erotic creepy uncle  afterlives and the christians with their greed filled mansions and streets of gold.

the two biggies look like they have afterlives designed by the most morally bankrupt pieces of garbage that ever lived.

And you insulting me instead of providing an actual argument just proves that you're blowing smoke out of your ass.MetalDogGear

Funny, could've sworn you did the exact same thing ;)

All of them are true. What the hell are you talking about?British_Azimio

If you're saying that all religions are equally valid then I misunderstood you. I agree with that But the word "True" just gave me a different mindsetMetalDogGear

Yes, perhaps that would have been best.

I meant to say different religions look at the same things with different sets of eyes. For example, I believe the idea behind the concept of god is not that of a personified, conscious being, but rather the things that act outside our perception and that we have no control over, much similar to the more intuitive and widespread concept of karma, which puts more emphasis on what a person does. The entirety of the greek, roman or egyptian pantheons wouldn't be far different.

Metaphors like that are intentionally put in place so that every person may interpret them and have his own cauldron of beliefs.

Norse mythology, I suppose....

I believe that one actually leaves us options, unlike the disgusting hatocracy, which our entire world is dominated by...

And I admit my mistake.

Then I apologize for insulting you.

It's okay, it was me who misspoke first.

None.  Religion shouldn't be about true or false, it should be about culture and finding peace with one's surroundings.  I'd rather make it so that people stop trying to defend religion as true, which would basically mean an end to outlandish metaphysical claims and superstitious beliefs.  

Christianity isn't a religion so i say all religions are bull Sh!t

[QUOTE="Laihendi"]I would choose Tolkien's mythos.worlock77

So Catholicism then.

They aren't a religion however. Well, scratch that, sorta. Gandalf is essentially an angelic being (of a lesser order). The closest thing to religion in Tolkien's works is pretty obviously influenced by his Catholic beliefs.
