Exclusive salvation religions are cults.

Exclusive salvation religions are cults. Salvation is between you and God for the most part. Not between you and Jesus or you and Mohammed or Buddha or Bahaulla or any other iconoclast. It's you and God. And if you want the truth, if you have a system of life knowledge which guides you through life and addresses concerns which equate with the concept of sin, you don't even have to believe in God. Some choices can end life - just have a faith or belief which is pro-life and organises your life well. There are saner religious teachers than the iconoclasts. Some pastors and other spiritualities have a better method for balancing a good and wholesome life.



Personally I think Catholicism and older Protestant Churches are mostly over the hype of exclusive salvation ideas. Usually these days such churches offer grounded enough lifestyle options, which help a lot in a person's ability to navigate this human adventure on planet earth. From my perspective worshipping Jesus as God is idolatry. But not just Jesus - worshipping any human as God is idolatry. This annoys God somewhat, but he has a thick skin. This is my perspective.
