Can anyone name a religeon that is the correct one?
My personal criteria would be: Shouldnt celebrate holidays/ only study the bible, not publications with someones personal ideas/ people won't worry about dressing in exactly a particular manner, welcoming others personal thoughts on the interpretation of scripture even if it differs from others/ not demand money for membership.
Any religeons like this??
Hi Musky,
You asked: Can anyone name a religeon that is the correct one?
No. And if anyone does, they're lying. The answer to this question is different for everyone. If you're looking for one with the criteria you stated above, I wish you luck. If you find one like that, join. It's probably the right one for you.

The closest thing I've ever discovered is the text called the "Tao Te Ching." Written 600 years before Christ by Lao Tzu, it contains many concepts that are contained in the Sermon on the Mount. This supports the contention that the Way to God has always been known by a very spiritual few, but was more fully illuminated by Jesus for the many.
As for so-called Christian religions, not a chance.
I'd rather be called a Hindu than a Christian. Or damn near anything else.

the correct one
You think there's a correct one?
My personal criteria would be: Shouldnt celebrate holidays/ only study the bible
already sounds like a false relgion (and a boring one)
Correct One? You think such a thing exists? You think there is a need for a correct one?
Never Squat With Yer Spurs On
only study the bible

just a quick question WHICH BIBLE
NIV , NWT, KING JAMES, CATHOLIC .ETC
Personally, i believe 'god' is big enough to have something going w everyone on an individual basis. The question is, can people throw off groupthink, and be big enough to have an individual relationship w 'god'?
So. your right religion would have your name on it. Mine is named after me. These are the 'narrow paths', most people don't find it, so most are on a 'broad path'.

Musky,
You could take your criteria and start you own religion. It has been done before, with varying degrees of success.
Religion is made by man and cannot be flawless.
I believe through personal prayer and reading the bible, I have grown closer to God and become spiritually strong.
Everyone has to do what is right for them.
I know in my heart what is right for me.
