What does your religion say about existing with other religions? (lemmy.world)

I only have a familiarity with Christianity and the "no other gods before me" thing. I am curious what other religions have to say about it.

100% agree. God can't be subject to the law of the universe or he wouldn't be God. He'd be a human then, have to abide by physics and logic. Wouldn't be omnipotent, not all-knowing and supernatural things wouldn't exist. Couldn't have created the universe in the first place. So he obviously can be anything and its opposite at the same time if he so likes.

In addition there are lots of religions with the same basis and same god. We just disagree on whether Jesus or Mohammed or whoever was his last messenger.
