What is the most friendly religion?

A:Of all the major religions extant today, Buddhism, Hinduism and Daoism are probably the most tolerant. It is relatively easy for a polytheistic religion to accept the existence of other gods not worshipped by the followers of that religion, but not for monotheistic religions to do so. Nevertheless there are two important exceptions to the rule of monotheistic religions being less tolerant. The Persians, monotheistic worshippers of the Zoroastrian god Ahura Mazda encouraged the Jews to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their Temple, even providing the funding for the construction. They justified this because they identified Ahura Mazda with the Jewish God, saying that it did not matter what people called Ahura Mazda, as long as they worshipped him. The Nestorian Christians are also worthy of mention. When Nestorian missionaries arrived in Xi'an, the ancient Chinese capital, they met Buddhist missionaries who also wished to spread their religion in China but were unable to translate their texts into the Chinese language. The Nestorian missionaries willingly assisted the Buddhist missionaries in their task, with the result that Buddhism was able to spread through China.


Does the Roman Catholic Church claims to be the one and only rightful religion all over the world?

Yes, the Roman Catholic Church does claim to be the one and only completely true and rightful religion for everybody in the world; it does however recognize that there exist other religions which have some partial degree of truth as a result of having some resemblance to the Roman Catholic Church. Note that there is nothing unusual about this claim. Almost all religions claim to be the one and only completely true and rightful religion for everybody in the world. The only religion I know of which is based on the premise that all religious beliefs are equally acceptable is the Unitarian Universalist Church. And even they would claim that due to their inclusiveness, which surpasses that of any other religion, they are therefore the best religion. Any individual who did not believe that his or her religion was the best of all religions, would logically leave that religion and seek a better one.

What is the best resolution of the control of Jerusalem by the Israelis and the Jews?

The best solution is that the Jews should accept Islam as the religion of the God, accept Jesus is the Messiah, and accept Mohammed is the Messenger of the creator of the earth and heavens. Why? Why this is the best solution? Because the Creator of the earth and heavens doesn't like the disbelievers in him and his religion to control the city that he loves. and the God want s his role to be established in that city. If the Jews and the Israelis don't want the rules of the religion of Islam to be established in Jerusalem. Then the creator eventually will send some nations to kick them out of that city and their role will end there. Since Jerusalem is a holy city, and the God want his religion and his role to be established there, then they should do of what the lord of that city wants. Or will happen to them to what had happen to their forefathers before. They Must, Must, accept Jesus is the Christ, and accept Mohammed is the Messenger of the God. And I guarantee you that they will never ever find a better solution.
