ok im catholic and there is something called free will. That means that people can believe in what they believe in. And my friend's parents are starting some (Cristian) religion. And I know some catholics are really really mad how ,like, 2000 years ago people started to believe in other things! Well sometimes I'm one of them! But bottom line, religion is religion. So anyways me and my best friend have even gotten in a fight over Baptist and Catholic (wich are the most different of Lutherans,Catholics,and Baptist)! But my other friend is Lutheran and I've brought up my religion and we've NEVER gotten in a fight over religion. And personally I think that means because Baptists and Catholics are so different they would fight more and Lutherans and Catholics are way more alike they wouldn't fight as often. Oh and above:The world must rely on religion! So don't go off saying "da da da da no religion da da to good for that!"


Your incoherency makes this difficult to understand.

Christianity itself is only 2000 years old, I think you mean everyone else was mad that people started following Christianity.

Religion is how somebody sees the world and how the respond to it. Having one religion is like everybody having the same favorite sports team, the fun is in the controversy.

Yes, but while it is fun for some, there are these fanatics who resort to violence to those who disagree with them. Personally, I don't think religion is needed at all in today's society. However, if people have to follow a religion, I think it having one would be preferable to having many, since that would then the fanatics wouldn't have a reason to try to convince others to follow their belief by doing the exact opposite of what it teaches. Hopefully.

Though, since there are already many religions in the world, I don't think people should convert from one to another just for the purpose of uniting everyone under one religion. That'd be silly.

But, you know, people interpret religions in the way that suits them best, so most people would have a different interpretation of that one religion, which in turn would most likely cause the same kind of violence that was the only argument for having one religion in the first place.

So, my opinion? If people would just believe in what could be proven, they wouldn't have to fight over things that have no answer.

It's just like if you were trying to order a large pizza for a group of people. Not everyone is going to agree with everyone else and so it's going to end up being simple. Therefore it would have to be a simple belief or religion that everyone can connect to and agree with.

I'm sorry, but that simply just wouldn't be possible. A single religion? Nowadays, thousands of people are getting killed every day because they believe in a different religion from someone else. Changing that is gonna be a helluva difficult task, my friend.

I think that because that there are so many different types of people with different beliefs, that this feat would be impossible. The only way to do this would be if a ruler of the world forced it upon us.

in the bible it says that the anti-christ would create a one world religion which would cause a bunch of stuff, a world peace and a one world religion would be a bad thing in my opinion

Fisrt of all, you can't tell people what to think. Especially with religion. Because eventually, someone's going to realize flaws in the main religion and form another for people who have also found these flaws.Then the whole world turns into a big greasy ***** show and people start killing each other over the specifics of the big invisable man in the sky. Ladies and gentlemen, the world as we know it.

Personally, I think there should be no religion. Not that you can inforce that anymore than you can inforce having one religion for everyone to believe in.
