In the end, that's what matters. Not how you pray, not what you eat, not how you wear your hair or beard, not what you believe happens after you die. As human beings, we are imperfect and we make mistakes. We need to love and be loved. And we need to learn how to share with people who are poor, sick or suffering.

If the world's religions concentrated on helping people to be loving, compassionate and forgiving instead doling out guilt, punishment and fear to believers and non-believers alike, the world would be a better place, I reckon.

Yes, but people don't always mean the same thing when they use the word 'love'. http://grupthink.com/topic/8464
