Why are all the Abrahmic religions so dead set on conquering the world?
Why does each of the Abrahmic religions claim to be the only way? Why do later Prophets in the Abrahmic tradition each claim to be the only way to God? |

....dead set on conquering the world?
....claim to be the only way? ....[have people who] claim to be the only way to God? These are the qualities of a successful meme. Of the multitude of beliefs, belief systems, wordlviews out there, some will propagate with greater success than others. |

Religion, no matter what deity(s) they involve will aways be the center
of conflict. Is it the religion? No, it think not, AB. I think its the nature of our species. Our awareness of self, of self within society, of self within a universe, and our profound ability to question, research, associate, and conclude based on our own individual perceptions and conceptions makes us each unique. We have yet to understand how special that is, how wonderful, beautiful and exciting it makes our lives and this world. It is that individuality that causes conflict. Consider, that at one time when one said they were a Christian, it meant the same for all. Today, there is even conflict beneath the sign of that encompassing umbrella. Individuality - if we could only conquer our need to assimilate others to our way of thinking, then would we love every person for their differences and not see them as enemies. |
