All religions equally claim to have the way to G-d, and contend that they have the truth. Since we are all fallible human beings, our respective claims to be the sole possessors of the truth must remain unresolved, if we are to remain a civil society. Muslims claim that they have resolved the truth of their claim, and are entitled to use force, if necessary. So do communists.

Catholics and Protestants used to believe something similar, but then they grew up after beating each other senseless. Jews used to, too, back when we had the Arc of the Covenant and prophets and such. Since we are now without those things, we cannot aggressively make that claim until we regain them. So Catholics, Protestants and Jews have to maintain a defensive posture against the aggressive Muslims and communists, and form alliances against them, and therefore it behooves us to be tolerant of one another and of Hindus, who are polytheistic but naturally tolerant people, and Buddhists, who are passive fatalists, I think.

God is the ONLY God . . . God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Everyone has a choice to be a child of God or a child of satan. No fence sitters in heaven.
