By: Roger Lee Ray, D.Min.
pastor, The Emerging Church
Religions are like languages reflecting the most sincere and urgent desires of ancient cultures to articulate and teach their highest values and beliefs. As languages, one is not better than another. We can learn certain insights from all of them but we really must question their truth claims in light of modern culture and knowledge.

Being old does not mean better and, in fact, all major world religions are in dire need of massive reformation in order to remain relevant in the future. Misogyny, homophobia, adorations of rulers and deference to wealth and power, along with racism, and environmental exploitation need to be consigned to our religious past.
