1. Sincerity does not equal truth. People can be sincere and wrong (eg believing in a flat earth)

 2. The different religions contradict each other. Some examples are

• a. Hindus believe there are many gods, Islam believes there is one God.
• b. Hindus believe in reincarnation and that time is circular. Jews believe that time is linear - it has a beginning and an end.
• c. Christians believe Jesus is the son of God, Muslims believe he is a prophet.

 3. Because the major world religions contradict each other, they can't all be right. They could all be wrong but they can't all be right.

 4. Jesus says that he is the only way to God because he is the son of God. He says, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live..." In another place he says, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
