Any other Unitarian Universalits out there?

So does anyone else share my belief that all the major Religions hold relevance in the world?

I think God knew that not all cultures would accept the same things. Which is why he has given so many different spiritual pathways to so many different cultures.

I'm not saying Scientology or something like that counts as religion since you must pay so much money just to have the ability of being a member.

But in general, The Great Eternal force(God) has a plan for all of humanity no matter what your creed.

I been there a couple of times and like their tune. I haven't been there in a while, though...except for meditation in the mornings, twice weekly.

I like that they're 'religiously liberal'. Whatever you want to believe ... God, no god, whatever ... is cool with them.

Thats what I love about it. Acceptance is key. Accepting everyone not matter who they be.

More or less religious relativism.

That might actually be an official religion. I know George Carlin said he worshipped the sun so that's at least two people.

They share many beliefs in common.Muslims read the same Bible as christians,Jews read the first half of the Bible and not the second half.
If God created all people,then he created all cultures,so that statement will not fly. God created one path way to salvation,man has changed Gods word to fit his lifestyle.Man does not like to be told he is wrong,to keep from not feeling guilty all the time he changes Gods word to fit his needs.
That is why there are so many different religious groups now.If you want to believe that homosexuals are a good thing, you can find many churches that feel the same way.The church of scientology preaches that love of money and greed is a good thing,just look at our finacial system.Is it working for us.
Yes if you believe in the Bible God does have a plan for mankind,but very few will like the way it ends.OPH

I come from a family of pasters,every male on both sides of my family,but me.After having it forced down my throat to believe what they told me,i went and found out the truth for myself.
What i found saddened me to no end.They claim to preach God's word,but what they teach is their words.
Here are a couple of examples,Christians are to keep the sabbath,the sabbath according to the Bible is from sunset friday to sunset saturday.
Not sunday,the day the pagans worshipped the sun.Easter is another pagan holiday,nowhere in the Bible does it say to celebrate it.Christmas,another pagan holiday,not talked about in the Bible either.OPH

Yea, I almost, I said ALMOST consider today's church as the enemy of God.

I think Jesus, Mohammed and Budha could sit down and agree on just about anything to do with religion.

It does not help with the end results.If the major religions are not preaching what is in the Bible,Catholics,Lutherans,Baptists,how are they helping them save their souls?
I agree that they would have a good time comparing notes.OPH

If you like reading about early man from the time of Christ,do you try to find the connection to early christians.OPH

Man, the first 20 years of my adult life, all I ever did was SEEK the TRUTH, by reading and meditating. I own a library you wouldn't believe of books on WHERE DID I COME FROM, WHY AM I HERE, WHO IS GOD, WHAT IS GOD, WHAT IS TRUTH, CREATION, RELIGIONS, RELIGIONS, THE HISTORY OF GOD etc
I've never met anyone that has read as much as I have on the subject. I've studied every theory, every religion, every denomination until I thought I was just spinning!
I ended up with basic theosophy, and esoteric gnostic beliefs.
