That might be true, but I was responding to your post in which the premise was that most people will continue to be believers. I thought the question was, if most people will continue to be believers, then under those conditions would it be better for them to all be practicing the same religion. My response was, on the premise that you stated, that most people will continue to be believers, then under those conditions, it would be better for them all to be practicing the same religion, namely the religion which consists of using their lore and scriptures to help them live more fruitful and beneficial lives.

His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son,

but by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not:
he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
Then again called they the man that was blind,

Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no ,

Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I could never figure out the one or many thing when it comes to religion.
Personally I view religion as an interpretation of the truth that is around and within us. Mind you I worded it dualisticly on purpose in light our views are primarily that as an observer. Forgetting that we ourselves are undifferentiated.
At times things get embellished and fabricated but still remains the same exact truth around and within us that we all collectively experience in a direct and wordless way.

Christendom (and other examples of people of one religion trying to dominate those around them) was a dismal failure. So if you allow religion in society, the more of them the better.
But the best option is for people to realize that revealed religions and revealed spiritual paths do not generate provable knowledge. Mere "faith" kind of knowledge is useless unless it is based on sound philosophy.

The Bible declares that in the Messianic Age the Creator Alone will be worshipped.
