Nope. Several world wide religions are expressedly organized principles of acceptance of other faiths. Several others have strong ecumenical tendancies. Posting one's opinion is fine...but manufacturing false facts is quite another.

I've seen plenty of pretty senseless bickering and religious misunderstanding, but i've also had extremely meaningful experiences crossing those boundaries with respect. Some of the most meaningful times i have worhsipped have been side by side with members with other traditions: protestant, muslim, mormon, hindu, quaker, jewish...all sharing a connection with God. While i respect that your expereinces may have been different, i suggest that you refrain from generalizing your case as the rule, since there are most definately counter examples.
