What effect do you think religious pluralism and the interfaith will have on the future or organized religion?

Soceity and any interfaith makes those in these groups more acceptance, and in such can often dilute the faith with beleifs, practice or teachings of the others.

Why the word (christian Values), if it is found in a country,s constitution. Christians in the particular country, feel as if they own the country, they dominate in every aspect with prayers and belief, as if everyone in the particular country, feel for their vibe... personally it sucks.
What effect do you think religious pluralism and the interfaith will have on the future or organized religion?
The effect religious pluralism, and the inner faith would have on organized Religion would be; the continued sense of emptiness, and, uncertainty... The continued use of, and trying to understand a encrypted book, that continue to swirl, their minds, like a whirlwind on a blazin' hot summer,s day...
I hope one day, they wake up, before it is too late!!

Christian America is not the only country bound by its sworn oath to a certain religion.

I personally think you have to make up your mind what you are on about. Pluralism is rubbish, either you have a belief, or you do not, it's no good saying Yehweh is God then saying no, Allah is God, for it's certain they are not the same person. If I believe Jesus is God I cannot believe Allah is God because the Muslims who worship Allah deny Jesus is God. We both cannot be right. They say Allah does not have a son, so he cannot be Yehweh, who has a son, Jesus. Either Jesus is who he says he is or he is not, there is no pluralist view available. Hinduism will not lead you to God, Buddhism will not lead you to God, Islam will not lead you to God, only Jesus will lead you to God, so how can a pluralist view exist?
