True Religion?

[Joseph Stephen]

I also am exploring Islam and reading "Life of Muhammad" pbuh.

I also do not believe there is any one religion that is the only truth, to the exclusion of all others. As my sig says, God/goddess manifests itself in many different forms and is worshipped under many different names. Personally, I am drawn to isis, especially in Her Greco-Egyptian form, as worshipped in the Isis Mystery religion during the Ptolemaic and Roman eras, but I don't claim that Isis is the only right one or that She is in any way superior to, or preferable to, any of the others, she's just the one that I resonate with the best. Which one is the "right" one depends on your spiritual needs.
It's like arguing over whether Spanish, French or English is the One True Language...

Do you know her as Isis of many names or just the mother goddess?

 

[Setepenaset]

Both.

When there are so many Religions on the planet,each maintaining theirs is the true faith I can't help but think that ones faith is decided by your birth circumstances. If born to Muslim parents you will be Muslim,born to Christian parents you will be baptized Christian etc.,considering not many adults choose another religion later and many fall away from their religion isn't it difficult to argue yours is the true faith?

Religion based on demographics or tradition is not true religion.Although,this is usually how ones religion is decided unfortunately.

Personally I believe that faith and religion are not one and the same. Faith is from God, religion is the man made expression of faith. Not many people have enough time in their lives to do a thorough study on comparative religion. There are elements of truth in all.
