If you read the Bible, it says somewhere that Jesus Christ is all bent out of shape because people
will choose to set up different denominations of Christianity. So I think there was only supposed to
be only one religion, but when that religion didn't fit the beliefs of a few, that few broke off and
created another religion. There were religions that existed far before Christianity like Hinduism.
It would be futile to lump everyone up under one religion, but I think that's the way it was
supposed to be back in the day...for Christianity at least. |

Not sure which way to vote on this one; the only way this could happen is if the "one true" God
comes to Earth, stays awhile, and forces people to believe His way. It would probably take a few
generations and lots of miracles...
On the one hand, I agree with Character's nazi argument; on the other, I am in favor of Divinity's
concept of universal, "Unconditional LOVE" as the one true religion, because that encompasses the
best of what all religions claim to strive for (IMHO). |

Yeah and that religion is - lds - Mormon! Stop the cow believers become a god lover which there is a
god! |

Just think how warm and fuzzy the whole world would be if everyone could rest easy knowing that
everyone else believed the same things that you believe...for instance, that I am God. |

It would be nice, but impossible. |
| |
|
| |
|

|
|

Yes we should... It would solve a lot of conflicts in the world. However there would be even more
wars in deciding what that religion to have... That already happens in the far east but this time
major powers would get involved and it would be a disaster. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
|
Yes. And that should be atheism. |
| |
|

It would solve many problems in today's world, but the holy books of many religions (the
Bible, Tanakh, etc) and their beliefs and meanings are very firmly ingrained into their respective
countries. It would be near-impossible to turn a devout Catholic to Islam, and just as difficult to
turn an Islamic believer to the Catholic faith.
This statement does look like it should be on the 'against; side, but I am for it, just mentioning
how difficult it would be, |

Yes,we should only believe in the true bible. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|

I'm going to say yes, either way it has all been created by men high on drugs. |
| |
|

We should. Preferably Christianity. But, sadly, that will probably not be happening soon. |

It is needed primarily to stop arguing about the religions. This word religion is much smaller in
listening to but has the power create as well destroy the whole mankind. But every one should know
that human being has created the religion, not the religion which created the human being. We must
stop making wars and killing people in the name of religious rebel. Over of all, we are firstly the
rational human beings and the dwellers in the same earth. So why should we fight against each other?
There should be a single religion exist and that is humanity. All people of this earth are nothing
but the brothers of each other. This feeling of brotherhood should be raised and only one
religion’s existence would make it possible. If there would not be any humanity, there would not
be any religion as well. |

I wish I could be on both sides here but first off.... Don't you realize "there should only be one
religion" is the banner for why wars are started? You can't get much more nazi than believing there
should only be one religion.
But i am for it because i wish so dearly it were possible. Frankly, i really don't care. Religion
isn't important to me in any fashion or sensibility. You can be a satanist and i'm cool with that,
in fact, the world could be one satanist religion and I'd be cool with that... If it helped us fund
the poor, end wars, maintain a sense of passion in a world cyclically declining into boredom.
But satanists don't think such ways. In fact, religions as a whole don't think such ways.
Religions tend to want to control things, and want to provide dictums. In essence, religions tend
to want to redefine religion. Religion is a personal connection between you and what you believe.
And i wish we could all believe this as one whole truth. And the thing is i'm pretty sure we do.
But that doesn't mean your soul doesn't have a pricetag and people will refute that which they know
is true, because there's someone out there who promises doing so is just the bee's knees. When the
truth is bees have no knees. :) |

All religions are respectful and no religion ever taught war, hatred, killing, fighting etc. I
believe all religions convey the same message as follows:
1. Have a belief in the existence of a God.
2. Avoid all kinds of unethical things that could harm any living being.
3. Be honest in your deals and deeds.
4. Always help the needy.
5. Always follow the path which is right even if it is tough to follow.
6. Understand your responsibilities in every role.
7. Have pity on not only human beings but also every creature of God.
As well as lots of other things. |

Yes I strongly believe that we all should have one religion. Every sensible person in this world
does know that this world is a creation of a single creator. He is called by many names. In
Christianity we call Him God, in Hinduism we call Him 'Baghwan' and in Islam we call Him Allah. We
should only worship one God. He is the most beneficent and most merciful.
All the religions give one and the same message;
• Don't speak lie, always say truth
• Do good to others so you can have good from them
• Be kind to your parents specially and also to all living creatures
• Preach others the right path and stop them from wrong doing
• Help the oppressed, abandoned and neglected people
• Never say any harsh word to your subordinate and give him the same treatment as you treat your
children
• Do your work with honesty and never betray anyone
So we have very much commonalty that means our religion is the same. We should stop hatred and
spread peace and love. This is how the humanity can survive and be happy. |

That would be utopic but great. My vote for it! |

Who would determine this religion?
No one can really claim the monopoly on the absolute truth, for religions people follow depend upon
cultural ties and geographical location, so would choosing 1 religion be really rational? |
| |
|
| |
|

|

Good point and good idea...but what religion would it be?.. Who would get to decide? And what ever
it was there would always be someone who wants a different one... |

Personally, i don't follow any religion and i do not believe in God. What i do believe in is that
every person has the choice to choose their faith. No one should limit them on one religion. Some
people follow multiple religions and some don't follow any at all. We are a diverse society of
people, and no religion is more important than another. People do fight for what they believe in but
one must remember that no one person is right. |

This is just idiotic, people should be able to pick what they believe or don't believe in |

The thing is, man is free to chose whether or not he wants to believe a certain religion or not. So,
right off we have to ask if it would actually be possible. Secondly, is this proposition actually
desirable? Contrary opinions have a way of fine-tuning each other, and bringing us closer to the
truth. Then of course there is the question of whether or not that will really improve things. In
many religions there are divisions, and differing points of view which are sometimes as violent as
the so called "wars between the religions.
So, "should" we have only one religion, it does not seem necessary, nor even desirable, so, no. |
