JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED YOURSELF.
Who is any man to tell any other man how he should worship or by what name to call his god? What makes you so right, Mr. Right-Wing-Fundamentalist?
(that is not directed at any individual here, just a general hypothetical question)
My personal beliefs are mine, but I do think that no matter what your religion, Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, whatever - the point of them all in the end is to be closer to God (whoever or whatever that might be to you), so at the end of the day, that makes us all the same doesn't it?

That is an all too common characteristic of "Christians" nowadays.
[edit] I'm sorry. Some "Christians" nowadays. Most are good folks from what I've seen. I am constantly annoyed by the arrogance of those that will try to tell you that their "brand" is the only true Christianity. It really saddens me.

I'm suspicious of anyone who is of a particular religion because of what he perceives to be FACT. Religion isn't religion if there's no FAITH involved, but I think many extreme Christians and Muslims have lost sight of that.

Damn, what have they done that is so good?

All Masons (who posted here) have made it abundantly clear they know the correct interpretation of the Bible.
I'm not here to dispute that.
I get the feeling they won't share their interpretation, however.
