have you encountered people of your faith who are willing to accept all religions may have the same god?
I have heard it said that while the holy books and the traditions change the good deeds done in the name of god / allah / yahweh / buddha must be inspired by the same source they must be good deeds brought about by the love of the same God?
What do you think to this idea?

Absolutely, practically everyone, but then I'm a Hindu. You have to be aware that this does not mean you can "pick and choose" from different paths, or dither around and chose none (I have encountered Unitarians who do this).
Knowing that other paths are valid does not detract from your path, or mean that you should be distracted from it. Respect for other faiths requires dedication to your own, if you are dithering between faiths you cannot appreciate someone who is committed to theirs.

Ive had this view, yeah we cant know for sure the best way to worship and what god wants of us, so i cant see why some religions are so oppsed because they essentialy believe the sam,e thing- that theres a greater power out there than what we can see. So i think we should definetly respect other peoples views because espicaly when there just different ways of looking at the same thing.

Let's see. God and Yahweh refer to the same being. Buddha never claimed to be a god, Allah's teachings are incompatible with those of Jesus Christ (love all, forgive all, show mercy, judge no-one)

Where all religions meet and believe in the same concept of God is at the mystical level. This is at the opposite end of the religious continuum from any fundamentalism.

Not yet, but I haven't exactly asked.
I'm open to the possibility, though I don't think it's a very high chance that every single one of those gods is actually the same one.

All religions are young compared to how long the earth was created.
Whoever created the earth is the same being/energy force that gave us all life, therefore we all share the same creator.

I'm not religious but I've met several people who fit that description, and they tend to be the most accepting of others.

Postmodernism is where what ever works for you is the truth. A lot of postmodernists mish and mash religions.
