Which religion is the most believable?
32 Answers

Christianity, let me give you just a couple reasons.
1. Science. Science backs up a lot of what has been said in the bible. The area of the red sea at which it was predicted to be parted there is a large indent at the point where the waves crashed down. Science picked this up by looking at the ocean floor. The existence of Jesus Christ is a no brainer. Not only Muslims, but Buddhists believe that Jesus existed. They believe him to be an encarnation of one of their gods, but he existed. So if Jesus Christ existed where are his bones? The bible states that Jesus rose from the dead. If that is true there are no bones, that is why archeology has not been able to uncover them. Examples such as these go on.
2. Psychologically. Examine a lot of the religions of the world. often you will end up with loose ends, which in themselves are not wrong, cause for one they create thought and growth. Christianity itself leaves a few questions for us to ponder. But when you examine Christianity it flows, and has a purpose.
3. Corroboration. Big word. for me to. Talk to most history professors, and ask them what makes a historical document accurate, and factual. Historians writtings about the time of Christ were many. The Historian for the time of Caesar I believe... has eight manuscripts... all corroborating to say the same thing. All these manuscripts are now believe to be facts, because they all defend each other. Now guess how many manuscripts documents back up the bible (go ahead make your guess) over 700. If you email me, I will get you the exact number. Now to have 700 documents backing up the Bible, which is the main defender of the faith, well to me that's pretty mind boggling.
4. Miracles. Blind seeing. Lame walking. Deathbeds left. Yes a lot of it is true. You might tell me yeah well the Buddhists can meditate so much that mac trucks run over them. Well all the more. Satan has a strong hold on many and can have that effect of power here on earth. Spirits I believe in them. Saul called Samuel's spirit back from the dead in 1 Samuel. Jesus demands spirits to leave people a bunch of times in the New Testament. These miracles, don't just happen cause atoms are destroyed and created so quickly that we can't see them. That's not possible thanks to Science. But yes, odd things happen, and I believe are quite explainable thanks to a way taught by Jesus Christ
These topics are a few of the reasons for which I believe Christianity is the most believable, but I or any internet site have no responsibility choosing for you what is. You need to make the choice of doing the research, and find out for yourself.

If you think about it, religion can actually send you to hell. There are many "religious" people that don't know the Redeemer, Jesus Christ. If you don't know Him, then you're in a world of trouble. Being "religious" will not merit you salvation. Without salvation, you will not see Heaven. Jesus is the ONLY way to Heaven, through His precious redeeming blood do we have remission for sin. The Bible is VERY clear about this. Many people mistakenly believe if they are good moral people, and they do a lot of charitable things, this will get them to Heaven. This is a lie of the devil, that simply is not true. Works will not earn salvation. As the Bible makes perfectly clear, the only way to get to Heaven is by accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, and trusting in His shed blood for the remission of your sin. Asking Him to come into your heart and save you. For He alone is able to do this.

They all mean well, but they all fall short. Religion is a man-made attempt to earn God's favor and live a "good life". Christians believe that we achieve those things via faith in Christ. Its not about religion, it about faith in the atonement of Jesus Christ.

Islam. Islam is the only religion who's book hasn't changed and is the most logical one. for example, Christianity believes in the trinity of god, the father, the son and the holy spirit. how could god be all three at the same time. they know it isn't logical, but have been brainwashed by priests to "just believe" despite how illogical it is. Islam just states that there is one god. no trinity, no twinity, just one god and Muhammad was his last messenger.whoever obeys god goes to heaven whoever doesn't goes to hell. its just as simple as that.

Only Christianity and Satanism are rooted in absolute truth. Both are well documented historically and it is well documented that Christ died and was risen. No other religion can claim historical accuracy of the scriptures they use and none have the archeoligical proof that Christianity does. God bless you.

if u go deeply into the priniples,philosophies n the moral advice offerd by all the religions around the world,you r gonna notice that hindusm is d most open religion which aceepts evryother religion n doesnt shun them like most others.
if u ponder more deeply into the sacred texts of the religion ,you r most likely to b wonderstruck by the depth n meaning of the verses given(in sanskrit.
it carefully advices u abt what is gud,bad n the ugly!!!!
it doesnt command u to do so,but merely advices or requests u to do so.

We are all going to have disagreement over this question but I know Catholism is the most believable because it has its origins in Jesus Christ himself and was carried down through the centuries first by the apostles and disciples themselves and Jesus himself told Peter...You are rock and upon this rock I will build my church" Christianity, the following of Jesus Christ himself in an unbroken line of apostolic succession since Jesus time to today. By the way, the word catholic means universal. One holy Catholic and Apostolic church.

To me, Christianity, Catholicism in particular, is the most believable.
By the way, I was raised in a very non-religious home by a Mother who was (and still is) very much against religion. She is especially against Christianity, and Catholicism in particular.

Deism. God created everything, set the ball rolling, so to speak, and since then has taken a hands off/ let's see what happens kind of position. If i had any need of a religious belief, that's the one i could get behind.

Christianity. Scientists hav even proven some things that happened in the bible really happened. As well as in Revelation it predicts that the mark of the anti-christ will b with an injaection in the arm tht lets you do everything in the news look for it it is there.
