Exactly - or what one denomination of Christianity thinks about another. There wouldn't be so many denominations if people agreed on how to worship.

By the way, the word "worship" in relation to attending religious services is pretty hilarious, when you consider that so many denominations of the same religion (e.g., Christianity) have their own specific ways of worship that they decide, at some point, is the only correct way.

It's just humans disagreeing with each other. Sometimes we do it with war, killing off those we disagree with.

Sometimes we can settle our disagreements by just starting a new way to "worship" the same god and even the same son of the same god.

I'd go evn father and say there are billions of believers in one god or another - and probably a billion or more different definitions of what god is.

And fundamentalist Christians think their god is the only true god and everyone else is going to hell!

Actually, lots of religions think they are the only ones who have it right, which is why there are so many religions and so many denominations within a religion.

I wonder who is right? Guess we won't know until after we're dead -- unless the atheists are right and we just die and that's the end of it -- no more conciousness, like before we were born.

+1 What happened? I didn't think it was a good thread, but someone must have taken offense at something in and reported it?
