Aspects of Beliefs

Learning many different types of religions and how they work, I can see how my faith

and some of the beliefs I have could not be liked or agreed with. The first one that comes to mind

for me is thinking someone must be a Christian to follow God. To get to heaven, Christianity

believes you must believe in God and follow Christianity. Many religions would disagree with

my religious belief and even not like it. Hinduism believes that all paths that lead to God are

valid and that all other belief systems are respected and accepted. Another belief that others

might not like is Christianity believing in the holy trinity, The father, son, and the holy ghost.

Christianity follows the bible and other religions such as the Jews would not agree with that

because they follow the Torah. Christians believe that there are heaven and a hell and once you

die, that is where you go. Buddhist’s believe in reincarnation and they would look at Christianity

beliefs as different and would not agree or like that belief. Christians think they must preach the

gospel to everyone. Other religions think it that if someone is willing to want to learn their

religion, they will teach and share the word. Some Christians sometimes seem to force their

beliefs and religion on people. Many faiths would not like that Christians push their religion and

beliefs on others. One thing I think that other faiths would look at differently is how Christians

worship. Some religions are practiced by individuals and not as a group, such as Wicca.

Christians seem to follow a rigorous schedule of coming together and worshipping while

religions such as Wicca worship mostly alone and have the connection with God. While

Christians have time with God themselves that is their spirituality with God and not their
religious worships. As I have looked at different religions, I have seen that many religions would

look at Christianity and not agree or like many things Christians do or say.
