Which church is the In the Judeo Christion religon, there are hundreds of different bibles for each church. Infact if you include islam and others they to have different books and all of them beleive in one god. And all of these churches say that they are the right one and that all others are corrupted, but how are they sure. Is anyone sure if they're religon is the right religon? Is it possible that all religons evolved from one main religon and now they are dilluted by beleifs? And say if they are the right then where does the other world religons, like shintoism, buddhism and the religon of the native americans fit in or are the Polytheistic religons right and a monotheistic religon was just created to unify the gods and goddessess. What do you think?

I think some of it has to do with our/your upbringing on beliefsand what is being passed on to you. But at some point in life people tend to vere from that and believe what THEY want to believe. And I think that's how it should be. (it shows your indepenence and that you can think for yourself). I believe, that we all believe in the same GOD ,but did he have more than just ONE messenger? Each religion prays to someone/something besides GOD. (Jesus,Buddah, Allah,etc.) But I also believe that God (possibly) choose more than one "messenger" ,and each of them represented something different and was each destined for a different demise for a reason. But this is all just my opinion

Because certain people in power have manipulated, circumstances have affected, etc. human nature and faith to the point where lots of people feel the need dogmatically oppose, even condemn, all differing viewpoints from what they believe in in order to justify believing in what they believe in. There are lots of people, though, who've pretty much risen above that: the ones who can believe in what they believe in and interact with others who believe different things without holding anything in contempt except for contempt itself. Truly those are the best of any faith.

Well these points are good ones. every other religion has its own ideas and beliefs of who the only supposed "true" god is and how he or she is to be worshipped, for example the mormons believe that they have the right and true god, and all others are believing in false gods, the islams and muslims believe that allah is the only true god and the other religions are destined for hell if they choose to believe in someone other than him. some speculate and argue that the muslim religion of islam made up allah and that he is false due to there being no such evidence of him or his profit muhamed ever existing. the catholics have always had a strong belief that inorder to get to heaven you need to seek god and ask for his forgiveness through repetence, buddhism believes that their god is the one and only and all others religions have fabricted using buddha's image and knowledge. so many people have debated whether or not some religions are faked, others have debated whether or not there is really a god and heaven/hell/lucifer, but i have found that as long as people have their faith and can be happy believing in an all mighty and powerful god or goddess that is all about forgiveness and will save you from the bowls of hades, then I say why not allow them their freedoms of choice and beliefs. throughout history there has been many debate about jesus and his message of peace and ressurection, there have been scholars that have been denounced and so called tossed into the lions den for debating that god really exists, and that everyone is destined for hell unless they call upon his name, whether its moroni, allah/muhamed, jesus or buddha. it doesn't really matter, coz as long as some actually believe that these gods do exist that is all that really needs to be said.
some can say to a muslim "You headed to hell due to you false profit" or to a mormon "Your prfits these days are false and you are too dumb to realize this" but would they take your word for being the truth? the real answer is, No they would denounce you and say you are blesphemous upon the true god. some baptists believe, like me that there are facts about every religion that leads to one truth, just as the one above me has stated. these religions are based on one god, he obviously has sent out many messengers among us for different reasons. whatever these reasons be we will never really know unless we go into his kingdom and ask, he also must have known something that we do not yet seem to realize, so he took on the form of many different gods and goddesses, so in my beliefe no religion is corrupted or faked, no profit is false nor is an actual religion entitled to claim "Hey i am the actuall true reigion" coz they are all gods creations of faith and believing. in mormon text jesus visited america before anyone else did, in the holy bible that i own it states he only went out into galilee, jerusalem, egypt judea and other areas, in most of islam text it states allah appeared to muhamed so that he might unite his people in a way that would change life for themselves (I.E. religion). the jewish peoples believe that yahweh is the actual god of the holy scriptures. see so many people believe so many different things, but no one can actually say 100% that a single religion is forged from lies and corrupted.
