Editor's personal note:   I believe that... it doesn't matter if your religion is Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Shinto, Taoism, Satanism, Wikkan, Druid or whatever you were born into or chose to be ... is it not one of the goal's of each of these religions to get as many people into their fold as possible so as to promote their religious beliefs and become the one and only religion in the world?  This concept, if I may draw a parallel, is much like the idea of having a universal language. Whether that language be English, Mexican, Chilean, Swahili, German,  Arabic, Chinese or Sign Language. There can be no doubt that attaining this kind of uniformity would avert all kinds of problems which arise from these barriers. Is religion so different? Of course there are many cultures on this diverse planet of ours and almost no one is willing to give up their identity, religion or language, and almost understandably so. If anyone would like to comment on this, I would love to hear your thoughts. I am extremely open minded and wouldn't mind hearing your points of view.
