It's real simple.
All canonical Jesus Christ centered religions are good.
Why?
Attonement.
The same attonement that is offered to us when we willfully sin is also offered when we are trying to love God with all of our heart, mind, spirit, and strength.
So this beggs the question who is right? Which version of Christianity is correct? None are. The thing is.. We don't have to be.
So what's the trick? One must have the attonement offered by Christ. According to Paul to his letter to the Galations, this 'gospel' is the canonical/biblical Gospel. All other 'new gospels' are false.
Therefore the only ones that fall under the Christian 'freedom of religion' are those who know and follow the Jesus/gospel found in the canonical scriptures.
Jesus didn't write any gospels... come to think of it he didn't actually commit anything to writing... how strange?
