What are some similarities between various religions?

Answer 1

In Buddhism there is no God nor Heaven but a perpetual reincarnation process until the chain is broken and one gets to Nirvana, a state of superior being.

In Hinduism, many Gods act as superheroes above a perpetual reincarnation of the human gender

In Hebraism, the people of God, are waiting for the Messiah, whatever this means to them (a state, a person). The Jews who believed Jesus was the Messiah became Christians, others refused to believe that.

In Islam, it is believed to be the last and only true religion which was announced to Mohammed through an Archangel by God the almighty whom the human gender can only submit to without knowing him directly.

Christianity is the only religion which states that God himself became visible as a man (incarnation). More precisely, in the person of Jesus. So Christians believe that Jesus is God, a "friend" we can talk and relate to as he did with us in the first place.

All of the higher religions also believe that morality is an important component in man's relationship with the Higher Reality or Higher Consciousness. They also all believe that we are here in this physical world to learn to move closer to the Higher Reality.

Answer 5

It depends on which six major religions you want to consider: Hindu, Zoroastrian, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam and Baha'i all teach respect for other humans and a superior force or being - Buddha refers to the "First Cause."
