2 billion Christians(I find that hard to believe)Islam 1.3 billion
Theists pull the free will card every time someone brings up this kind of thing. According to Christianity, those people belonging to the other 4299 religions are destined to hell.
Can't see a real god doing that. Just another indication Christianity is totally man made.

is that all religions are right. The Creator manifesting herself in a
different light for different cultures.
That would be some sort of defence. But the theists are mostly so sure
that their flavour of religion is correct they cannot bear to consider it!
Originally posted by wolfgang59Besides, would a real god sanction three or four religions literally at each other's throats, killing in the name of that god? Just another sign it's all man made, no god needed. Men are just too fond of war, just look at Jerusalem and Gaza right now, and Iraq, and Afghanistan and Syria. Somehow I don't think a god would sanction any of that. Oh wait, theists rationalize that with the 'free will' card. Forgot, forgive me🙁
