I understand that two opposites can not be true. But more than one thing can be true. If two roads lead to the same location, that is just a fact. Perhaps one is longer but more scenic, and the other is quick but more bland. One person is in a rush; the other takes their time. Ultimately, they end up in the same location. If you view jesus as the epitome of goodness and stive for that, great. It is the insistence on literal/physical "truths" that cause issues. That is where the dogma lies. If you view religion as various attempts at forming narrative/metaphorical truths with the goal of directing humanity in a positive direction (which is very complex and fallable, as we are human) then we can remove the dogma and self righteousness and instead choose metamorphosis, that hopefully is for the better. I think this makes sense 🤔

God cannot be put in a box (religion) no matter what size or shape of the box, many religions have some truths like teaching love and forgiveness but people can have these truths outside of any religion. I must confess I had problems following all the logic seemed like more of a building a picture of the problem of exclusivity but in the end everything is still the same with no real solution to the problem. Our problem is that when we recognize that Exclusivity is a problem our solution is to change the shape of the box but God will still not fit in ANY box. I am still seeking answers just did not find it here.

The problem with your logic is that you assume "come to the father" means go to heaven. Jesus paid for everyone's sins- therefore you come to the father thru him. No need to be a Christian- you're already saved.

Can you share a couple verses that support your claim? There's more to it than what you said. To accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour is a must. Repent, believe - daily faith. Check out Matthew 7:7.. This also speaks to those with doubts and questions about faith. Those who lack faith, but pursue truth, will find it in Christ (Mark 9:24; John 14:6). Seek Him daily, you will feel Him!

Christianity is something humans created. The bible was written by people. God is god. Christianity does not have a lease on God. Get what I'm saying? You can't point to the Bible to verify it's self.
