Why do people insist that their belief is true and beliefs followed by others are false ?

@BabylonThat's right. I hope when it comes to spirituality and matters of faith, no one has evidence to state their belief is true. It's ok to believe but not that ok to tell others that what they believe is false.

@SW-User well, this begs the question 🤔
What if they are correct with therir faith, then?

@Babylon Well, this then begs the question what if they were wrong and other was correct 🤔🙂

@SW-User it's the same question. Can we agree that the right thing to do is leave anything which is false and follow that which is true?

@Babylon Absolutely

But many do. Miracles, which take place today, are plenty of proof that God is still here and alive.

Let us deal this argument with a case by case basis.

1. Miracles have a pattern and there is something scientific about it that is governed by nature.

A) It is easily understood from the example of how Lyapunov discovered patterns to chaos when he by mistake missed out few decimal places.
B) Take can example of fractal geometry.

2. There is no pattern associated with miracles and there is nothing scientific about it.

A) It could be an artistry of Gods. Gods have the power to create miracles. It may be the work of one God or many Gods.

B) How do we understand there is one God or multiple Gods responsible. How do we know that there is only one belief and not multiple beliefs. How do we know that only one belief among them is true and others are false? Let's us try answering these questions using a small story.

In this story, an elephant walked into a village where everyone was blind. The villagers were fascinated by the strange creature. One villager touched the elephant’s leg and said the elephant was like a tree. Another touched its ear and said the elephant was like a fan. A third touched its trunk and said the elephant was like a snake, and so on. Soon arguments began to break out. All the villagers had felt different parts of the elephant and discovered a piece of the truth about this amazing animal. But because they were blind, they couldn’t see the whole elephant, so they didn’t see how all these different truths could fit together. In the same way, people claim that different religions hold pieces of the truth about God, but no one religion holds it all. For this reason, people say we shouldn’t argue about which religion is right. We should just learn from each religion, because between all of us, we might just get the whole truth about God.

3. It could be a combination of all. An interesting pattern, science behind that pattern, combined with a Godly force.

[u]In short, let us open our minds to all sorts of possibilities. And when it comes to belief and Gods it makes sense that there is nothing like one true belief and one true God.[/u]

@SW-User Jesus! This is so nicely explained. The 🐘 story is too good.

@SW-User Love, peace, joy, harmony, is all good and should be practiced,yes, and sounds so good, but Jesus said without Him, none shall see God, so what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, has all these wonderful things, yet loses his own soul? It doesnt matter what naysayers say. It matters what Jesus says. We either believe and follow Him, or we don't. He said, it definitely matters what we believe and what path we take, because he said what we believe, determines our eternal destination, and that there's only one path that leads to heaven and God. You should know that if you have read your bible. Don't be fooled. Satan would love to convince people that what they believe doesn't matter. Jesus said "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but Me and My Word shall never pass away."

I don't know if you really know the value of love, peace and joy. These are positive emotions that connects people. Value of God is not measured by how much profitable it is for man.

There is better way how we Christians can practice our faith. I don't have to prove to anyone about my faith in Jesus. All these statements about what Jesus said pictures him as a mean and selfish God. Jesus is above that. Those statements are not told by Jesus. It is man fooling innocents in the name of Jesus for his own political gains. Real followers are above these politics and would embrace the love of Jesus without insulting the God whom other people believe.

@SW-User Denying all these things Jesus said to do, and twisting them into something ugly and wrong, accusing others of doing what they have not done, is what is deceitful and unloving. Your reasoning is spiritually blind and twisted to not see what is going on here. So think as you wish. Your accusations are ugly. You don't know me.

@LadyGrace You don't know me as well. Please learn to love Jesus. And not downplay others in the name of Jesus. If you want please do but don't quote Jesus or Bible. If someone gives a logical explanation, try to respectfully counter it. Jesus won't appreciate what you are doing. That's not live for God.
