Abstract

All religions are the same, they just use different symbols?

Dr. Margaret Farley disagrees with the claim that all religions are the same and just use different symbols. She acknowledges, however, that there are similarities since they are all in the same category of “religion”. Farley discusses these differences as God revealing Himself in very different ways in each religion, none of which hold the complete answer to who God is. Believers are then called to seek out the tradition that speaks to their walk of life and holds the most meaning for them.
