The Pope did not state that all religions are true

Posted on December 22, 2013 by cherryteresa

I saw this going around yesterday, which was claimed to have been said by the current Pope:
“All religions are true, because they are true in the hearts of all those who believe in them.”

A search on Google yesterday showed no valid source for this quote and it has been posted as false on Snopes.com today. It wasn’t a statement worth applauding anyway. This reminds me of junk like “The Secret”. That is not how truth works. Something is not true just because you believe super squeezy hard for it to be reality. I can deeply believe that the white rabbit/imp-like creature Kuromi is a real-life being I can hang out with, but she is not. And what if the same amount of people wish equally for it to be true and not true? Kuromi can’t both exist and not exist at the same time.

Furthermore, religions contradict each other and some explicitly state that if you don’t believe this exact branch, you are wrong and will be punished eternally for it. Only 0 or 1 religions can be true. They cannot all be true.
