Just because a christian based religion has different beliefs than your christian based religion doesn't make it wrong, does it?


Well, yes, to a degree. Either the word "Christian" (or "Islamic" or "Zoroastrian" or whatever) is susceptible of some kind of definition or it is not.

My religion is better than your religion?


It is not even a question of "my religion". I am not a Jew, but if someone says to me, "Jews worship a big blue monkey who lives on top of the Sears Tower," I feel absolutely no compunction at replying, "You, sir, are a bozo."

Obviously, there are sometimes going to be gray areas, but if it is not possible to say at some point, "Whoa! That simply isn't what Christianity says," then it is not possible to hold a rational discussion on the subject at all.

Amen.
