  1. 1. How strongly do you feel that your religion/church is the right/true/best one?

    • I know it is the right/true/best religion/church for everyone and I wish everyone realized this.

    • I'm pretty sure, but I wouldn't say that I know it is the right/true/best religion/church. I think it's better than any other option available.

    • It's the right/true/best religion/church for me, but it isn't necessarily that for other people.

    • I don't believe that any religion/church is more right/true/good than any other. Each person must decide that for him/herself.

I see from the comments that many people answered based on a general category like Christian. I should have worded things more carefully that I mean specific denominations (e.g. Roman Catholic, Methodist, etc.). Who has the "right" (or the most right) answers?

 

The church I grew up in presents its doctrine as more true than any other presentation. I'm aware of at least some other denominations who have the same black-and-white presentation. I'm wondering how common that is.

 

That is true of the church where I grew up. It is not true of the church I attend now as an adult, although there are certain churches viewed as having "less truth" than ours. A lot of other churches are viewed as "different flavors".

 

I should say that the church I left was a cult-ish fundamentalist church and the church I am in now is considered conservative evangelical.
