Ed,
I know nothing about Judaism. Neither do I know about Christianity,
Buddhism, Islam, etc.
Yet, If we look at our universe, all planets are in harmony. All
living beings are in harmony. Each and every moment is in perfect
harmony. It is just us humans often deluded to believe that we could
live separately from this harmony.
If there is more than one formula for the universe, if there is more
than one God, will everything be so harmonious? Even if there is, all
Gods must also be in agreement.
On the other hand, if we travel up and down the earth, searching a being
called religion with a certain name. Where can we find it?
In my opinion, all religions are external display of our internal
spiritual reflection, while internal is formless, and external is form.
Together they make some of us feeling complete.
Yet, it really differs from one to the other.
:-)
