Well...let me put it this way..The Ten Commandments stated that you should worship God and only God. So, If you worshiped God while your friend worships something else, then i guess it's ok.BUT If you worship what your friend is worshiping, then obviously you are worshiping false idols....that is if ,say, you are a christianANSWER 2:Most people choose to worship separately because there is a comfort zone that all in that church, synagogue, or mosque are of like mind. If a person comes to understand or believe that those from different faiths are ALL saying prayers to the same Creator, irrespective of what the Creator might be called in different languages or religions (e.g., God, Allah, Vishnu, etc.), then there is no harm in interfaith worship. The only things that would differ are the manmade rituals involved with each.
Hinduism states:There is only One God, but different names - The Truth (God) is one, but wise people call by different names.One God, but different forms - Brahman (God), the formless, is assigned forms only for the convenience of the aspirants. Whatever form any devotee with faith, wishes to worship, God manifest in that form.One God, but different paths - Just as rain water irrespective of the place where it falls, ultimately reaches ocean, the worship rendered to all deities of whatever description (name or form), ultimately reaches the Supreme Reality (God).Tolerance to other religions - Hinduism respects other religions as another path to reach God, who is called by a different name or having a different form.Hinduism does not claim that it is the only path to reach God.
