Religious?...Spiritual?


So, should i argue with you, that Christianity is the ultimate religion. Should i try convince you that Allah Is the actual Almighty. Buddha is the purest? 
Should i feel threatened by the name of your Creator.
 Should i dare to judge your way of praising, the name of the One we don't know, yet, no matter what, know there is something bigger than us.
Is his name Jehovah?  Shiva, Vishnu...Krishna?
Is it simply ones consciousness  , nothing more. Atheists, Agnostics....
Scientologists...the New World Order.

What makes us choose that which we choose? 
What makes us praise, pray the way we do?
 Do we have the right to kill another in the name of our religion. Have radicals managed to sway the lost, the confused, into believing that taking ones life and that of another safeguards a passage into another life victorious.

Which Almighty, which Creator, would condone the taking of ones own life and even worse the life of another?

Our arrogance to imagine our ability to translate the word of a Book Holy, events recorded, writings penned for future keepsake. 
Or can one say...our arrogance to translate with the intent of wielding power over others , frightening masses into submission, putting human against human.

So no matter the concept of God
    Bahá'í
    Buddhist
    Christian
    Hindu
    Islamic
    Jain
    Jewish
    Mormon
    Sikh
    Zoroastrian.... 
why are humans unable to live in peace with each other.

We give names to things, compartmentalise things, events and people according to what society, majority says...a good orator, an excellent propagandist will sway one to destroy oneself.

How do we know. Yes. How does one know what is for what

And thus....is spirituality bigger and stronger than faith....holding value beyond a Book Holy, a word given in Prayer, a sacrifice made.

I cannot imagine one person on Mother earth who can convince me they know better than the next person with respect to religion and spirituality.

I shall hold out for that day when maybe, just maybe, i shall receive my answer as to why religion is one of the biggest causes of wars atrocious, hatred deep.
