Why do we have different religions if there is one "God" only?!

I worship the one true God....Do You ?

Which God would that be? I don't believe in any God(s). Again, why do we have different religions if there is one "God" only?!

I think Jesus was an extra crispy kind of Guy......

God uses quantum entanglement just to mess with people's brains so no two people can ever hink much alike unless they get involved into any of the various cults.

The one true God is the one I worship....I'm sure everyone else who believes in God  will give the same answer, regardless of individual religions....If you don't believe in God, why screw with  folks that do believe...... Seems like a chicken or the egg kind of debate !

Pardon my French, no one has asked you taking part in this question if you don't like it. I'm NOT screw with folks that believe. I'm asking a reasonable question because I wonder how religions are used to canonise one and demonise others. This leads me to the question I have asked. I think I'm as entitled as everyone else to have questions about religions and that it shouldn't depend on whether I'm believing in a God myself.

To be as clear about this as possible, I don't say you or all does this.

All this said, you still haven't come up with what reason there will be to have various religions, if they all got the same God. Have a lovely day.

Hmm. And what will be the purpose? The fights of cults?

 I'm was guessing you were  gonna say the "egg" .....LOL.

It's fair enough for you to say you don't know. Bye.

The cult members' brains are all entangled together so they agree on everything that the master tells them. Complete control from a distance.

God wants everyone different so we think we have free will.

Control will be a good word to look into in such context.

Some of them (particularly ones like Buddhism (I think, again I could be wrong)) don't care who or what you worship that much, as long as you achieve personal enlightenment.

I'm not quite sure what about it puzzles you, but I think it's the concept that we're supposed to believe that exactly one of them is the correct one which achieves us eternal life (or whatever).

In Christianity, we believe that only our religion is correct because of the justice of God - sin makes us unworthy, and God's justice requires appropriate payment for that. Namely, sacrifice. In the old testament, that was doves and lambs and the like, but people used that as a way to get out of having a heart for God, and essentially treating sin as permissible.

Jesus, the son of God, enters the picture, and lives a flawless life. He dies as a sacrifice to cover all of our sins, and make us acceptable in the eyes of God (righteous). Through this, we can have a personal relationship with God and live eternally with him.

Slightly long-winded, but allows me to explain this: If we don't accept that God is God, and that Jesus is the sacrifice that pays the price of our sins, we can't be acceptable in God's eyes, and thus can't live eternally.

So, any religion that does not accept God as God and Jesus as the way to fulfill God's justice can't be correct.

I think Muslims believe that Muhammad is the way to God, though imperfect and human, and accept that Jesus lived, and lived flawlessly, but not that he's the way to God.

Judaism doesn't accept Jesus as the saviour. They believe that the saviour is yet to arrive.

I don't know about all the other monotheistic religions, but that's three relatively big/well-known ones and why they're incompatible, in a very simple way.

Exactly!
I'm.sure many see him Just like that.

And exactly this is what puzzles me. We got these monotheistic religions, and if they were to believe wouldn't that make God the same as it can only be one? Why do the religions then not accept each others and their cultural differences as being the main source of differences in how the words are written? It is only one God after all. This is the most simple part of it. It gets even more complicated when we involve other religions that have several or none Gods as they cannot be true if the monotheistic religions are true. And the monotheistic religions can not be true if the religions with several or none Gods are true.

Who is God if they cannot present themselves in their own image, and who are we if we cannot accept them like that? Hmm.

Yup, only question is if they see him as a cheap character imitating, or really believe in him. Eww, scary thought, the latter.

You're right that the monotheistic religions can't be true if the non-theistic religions or polytheistic religions are true.

Each religion has its own cultural trademarks, so to speak, but they aren't what separate them. Christians believe that Muslims put faith in a false prophet, who claims to be the way to god despite being flawed.

Jews believe that Christians are wrong about Jesus being the saviour, and that we have yet to see the saviour arrive.

Muslims believe Muhammad's teaching, which contradict the Christian's teachings (what Jesus taught).

They all have the same god, and share numerable scriptures, but have irreconcilable beliefs about the way to God.

And exact that's the point I don't get. If it's the same God, why wouldn't that God make sure that everyone sees them in the light they should be seen, instead of having people use their religions to fight each other, with or without acceptance from God?

The God I follow (I'm Christian) cannot be the God that the Muslims follow (God didn't send Muhammad), and the Jewish faith isn't current (Jesus is the saviour they're waiting for).
They can't be the same god. There's a lot of shared scripture, but they can't be the same God now. The God in the old testament (the shared scriptures, I believe) wouldn't send two different saviours, and have another on the way. His prophets tell of exactly one saviour, and the three religions disagree on who this saviour is.
Acceptance from God is literally the purpose of all three religions.

But yet you all believe there's only one God, meaning the others are wrong?

That the other religions are wrong, yes.

And you cannot see why this is a puzzle to me?

Desiree, nice explanation other than the last sentence. The Jews as a Nation rejected the Messiah even though Dan 9:24-27 gave the exact timing of the Messiah:

Intriguing SH

Would this God intervene to stop only the fights over God or would He intervene to stop all the other wars?
