They're all right, at least in their deepest truths

Catholicism, and because free will.

>>448691
what makes you choose Catholicism?

>>448678
Islam, because it is the strongest and the only one working towards wiping out those many false ones

>>448678

Because the most likely answer is that there is no 'God.'

>A certain person said, "In the Saint's >mausoleum there is a poem that goes:
>"If in one's heart
>He follows the path of sincerity,
>Though he does not pray
>Will not the gods protect him?"
What is this path of sincerity?"
>A man answered him by saying, ''You seem to >like poetry. I will answer you with a poem.
>As everything in this world is but a shame,
>Death is the only sincerity.
>It is said that becoming as a dead man in >one's daily living is the following of the path of >sincerity."
>-The Hagakure

>"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but...will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones."

As long you live a sincere path God will tell you 'well done'. Christfag here but I hold one of my core tenets as the 'Path of Sincerity'

>"Now departure from the world of men is nothing to fear, if gods exist: because they would not involve you in any harm. If they do not exist, or if they have no care for humankind, then what is life to me in a world devoid of gods, or devoid of providence? But they do exist, and they do care for humankind: and they have put it absolutely in man's power to avoid falling into the true kinds of harm."
—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 2.11

Allah wishes to test mankind. Evil may not enter into Janna so all must be tested for evil.
Man contains equal amounts of evil and good potential and one must be made dominant.

religion is man struggling to find the divine truth, any branded religion is cancer as they thrive on themes of the lesser arc which we know to be false hence the reason we seek a greater truth in the first place: tribalism, war, violence, imperialism - basically the desire to dominate others/struggle

Jesus said religion should be a private affair with good reason, it was his greatest truth... it is an individual struggle for truth not some organized form of cultural nationalism

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. -Matthew 5:16

His problem was the hypocrisy in the Pharisaic Jews and those people doing deeds for human praise.

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? -Matthew 7:22

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. -Matthew 7:23
