1. "so then...you think all other religions are wrong?"
and
2. "so...you think you're somehow better than everyone else?"
Both miss the true inclusiveness of the Christian worldview.
First, everyone on the planet is welcome to believe in Jesus, the Son of God. No one is excluded or prevented. Every person of every worldview, religion or belief system is welcome at any time. And it's your free will to decide, there is no threat of harm or death if you do not believe.
If you choose not to believe in Jesus, you're still considered no better or worse than any other human being, including Christians -- However, Christian spiritual diversity teaches that your life would be better off believing--both in abundant blessings received here on earth, and in eternal life with God after you die. That's a free choice though, available until you die.
Answering the first question--does believing Christianity make other religions "wrong"? There's nothing wrong with comparing and debating our worldview beliefs. It's healthy. But it's disingenuous to try and reconcile every belief system as "the same truth."
If Jesus lived, died and rose again as we believe in the Bible--as the subtitute sacrifice for our sins--so that by God's Grace, we can have a relationship with God, now and for eternity, thanks to Jesus' free gift of atoning death--if that's true, then you can easily answer the question for other religions or belief systems:
- If you believe that a person "earns" their relationship with God now and qualifies for heaven based on living a "good life" then that is not the teaching of Christianity. It disagrees with Christian spiritual diversity.
- If you believe that Jesus was a "good, moral person" but did not die on the cross for our sins, and was not God incarnate, that is not the teaching of Christianity.
- If you believe there is no God, or that all is god, or all are god...that is not compatible with Christianity. It disagrees.
Answering question 2, None of these belief alternatives makes you better or worse than your Christian neighbor, since our sins are only forgiven by God because of Jesus--we are not sin-less, we are forgiven. But belief in Jesus and his teachings does tend to move people away from sin and towards what God would prefer them to do, as taught in the bible. Not because they are superior to others, but because the Holy Spirit of God leads to better ways, by Grace (by His free gift of love and blessings). And yet, even after believing in Jesus, we still sin - we're not suddenly perfect. But we are able to turn to God and ask forgiveness, in Jesus' name. (see 1st John 1:9)
Christians, by definition, do not judge others as "worse or inferior" because Jesus himself taught humility:
"Why do you look on the splinter that is in your brother's eye, but do not consider the beam that is in your own eye?" Matthew 7:3
What do you believe?
