I've always believed that the common threads of Truth that run through so many belief systems lead back to God, but there's only one true path to salvation. You can't shine a light without having it spill out all over, but reflections aren't the source. <br /><br />In my experience, Christianity is the only religion in which God reached down to Man. All others expect us to become good enough for God in some way... which, as we all know, is impossible. Christianity makes sense to me, because I don't want a God who's small enough to be reached- He would be a mere construct of my own mind. I want a God who's bigger than me, bigger than my Pastor, bigger than the fallible human nature. I won't settle for anything less.

For example, the concept of three in one which is a reflection of the Holy Trinity, and one can see countless examples in nature reminding us of this vital aspect of Christianity ie the atom is made of proton, neutron, and electron (3), an egg is formed of the yolk, the white, and the shell (3), fruit has the seeds, the flesh, and the skin (3), the family has the father, mother, and child/children (3) etc etc. But other religions have also adapted the concept of the trinity for themselves. What's interesting to note, however, is the one way in which Christianity (true Christianity) is different from any other religion - a person must actually admit they need God and confess their sins. There are no steps or paths one can take in order to get to heaven. One is completely dependent on God for salvation.
