    “Religions are man-made institutions the purpose of which is to help people and communities to interpret the faith experience. It’s not that I respect all religions…it’s that I recognize all religions are different languages expressing similar sentiments”https://iranian.com/2019/04/09/a-conversation-with-reza-aslan/ …

        @HMajd @mojgan_haji If people read the Torah, the Bible and the Koran, they'll find out the three books are telling the same stories and relaying the same message through three different messengers.

        And that all religions have been wrongfully used as a tool to control, suppress and manage people.

        Religion is metaphor for meaning.

        I believe in God; and I also strongly believe that without faith, the selfless demands of religion are not possible. In the solitude even the best will ask what’s in it for me. Without God, there can be no ideal justice. Yes, Aristotle also agrees.

        That is your view and you have a right to it. For me religion is a claim by a person to be representing God, and I believe him, peace be upon him. Religions should be expected to live in peace with one another, but the non religious should show tolerance as well.

        And yet other ideologies like nationalism also man-made seem very different, in that they can’t be joined-and do not seek to unite across borders-yet we worry more about religion than those

        A ?. If religion is a language of symbols and metaphors to express ones spiritual journey and man has corrupted the original intention of religion to suit his own biases. Then how do we decide which prescribed practices to follow from religion to go on our spiritual journey?
