sigh. to quote the brilliant asma hamid who will always hold a special place in my heart (and whose presence somewhat allows me to feel like i can identify with a minuscule crumb of society again):
The Quran maintains that religion to God is islam, but in the Arabic language islam is an action before it became a noun. An action that entails submission to Truth, Justice, Love and God. God is the object of worship of all religious traditions and eternal life is given only by Him. Therefore, many religious traditions CAN lead to eternal life because eternal life is achieved by souls and not religious dogma alone.
