Are the majority of the people here religiously inclusivist or exclusivist? Inclusivism simply means that the person in question takes many faiths and religions into one. An exclusivist would instead view his own personal faith as the one true inescapable truth.
Myself I am inclusive. I study all manner of religions searching for a complete truth. I am a christian, but if asked about my specific beliefs I mix and match from many religions. I may read the Koran and say to myself "Hmm, good ideas, but I think this part may not be perfect... Wait! If combined with this principle from christianity, it becomes mind blowing! Ohhh, what about eastern religions?" See, I take and incorperate the principles and guidelines of methodist christianity, islam, Taoism, Maori tribal tradition, etc all into one better attempt at wisdom and guidance.
So what about you guys, do you mix and match as well, or are you one game men?
