Christianity has Jesus, a very important man to the religion who taught people how to treat others to achieve paradise in the afterlife.
Islam has Muhammad, a very important man to the religion who taught people how to act in the world to achieve 80 virgins in the afterlife(paradise to a man)
Hinduism has Buddha, a very important man to the religion who taught people how to treat all other living things and how to bring positive energy in the world to achieve the rewards you earned in the afterlife.

those are three completely different religions that are structured the same way. Wouldn't it make sense to believe that all religions are the same? All religions point to the same thing?

They all have someone or something that talk to others to let them know how to act, how to treat others, how to live etc
They all have a higher power that represents the different religions.
They all promise eternal life.

Couldn't it be possible that Yahweh(Christianity), Allah(Islam), and the Universal Law(Hinduism) are all the same thing?

Wouldn't it make sense that they all point to the same thing?

Every person is different, they have different ways of learning, maybe these religions are different versions of the same big picture for different types of people to understand.

Think about this metaphor
Im pretty sure everyone here has a Wal Mart near them somewhere, and when u go theres usually a shitload of people there.

Well everyone didnt take the same way to get there, everyone lives in a different area. People took different routes to get to wal mart, some took the highway, some took the scenic route, some took roads that were crowded with traffic, some took roads where they were the only car on the road. BUT THEY ALL ENDED UP AT THE SAME PLACE.

Isn't it possible that its the same thing as religion? Everyones different and has their own point of view on religion, everyone learns differently. Maybe God has shown himself in different ways to get through to different types of people.

Yall think about it I'm out

So the secret to immortality is to do what a belief in fake ideals tells you?

Hinduism isn't Buddhism. Dang...I don't remember the names of the main gods in Hinduism...

It's only been a year since I took Comparative Religions, too...

...I can't believe that it's been that long already. o_o

EDIT: I just read the rest of the post. Comparative Religions also taught us that there are too many contradictions in different religions for them to all be connected. If I had my papers from that class with me, I'd be sifting through them right now and telling you what these were specifically. Right now, I'm too tired and sick-feeling to mention anything.

No need to use a microscope to try and debunk every little nook and cranny. The overall generalization is good enough for me, I seriously doubt that God is only there for people who believe only in Jesus Christ in the whole Universe. There's more life in this dimension than just us. That's just selfish thinking.

Also Buddhism is derived off of Hinduism. Its sort of a branch off of it.

Hinduism came BEFORE Buddhism. Hinduism is technically the first known organized religion in the world. And I'm sure that God is known elsewhere and not just on Earth. The universe is HUGE! There's no telling how many life-supporting planets there are other than ours!

Just to be clear, Karma is not a god. And Hinduism did come first. But you're not wrong in saying that Hinduism has Buddha, he's like another reincarnation or something.

I meant that "Buddhism is derived from Hinduism" (just the wrong way i wrote it)

Thats not even the point of the thread anyways, stop worrying about the little itty bitty things and focus on the phkn point im tryna get across

I think that religions were just created (unintentionally of course) as a way to motivate hard working civilizations as a way to work toward something. I can't be completely certain on which religion is right, but I do believe that a lot of the big religions such as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all have the same one God. Personally I was raised on Christianity but I'm not completely sure which religion is right or whether any of them are real or not.

But if I had to guess,I would say that religion was stemmed from fantasies(not atheist or anything because I'm not completely sure whether even religions aren't true) of high ranking people back in ancient times, who told everyone about what ever that religion was. But religions all share one common factor: achieving some form of great pleasure for accomplishing something.
