It doesn't. If you believe in God, then choosing a religion based on which has the best morals could lead you to an incorrect God. You would be choosing the religion which has the guidelines, rules, traditions, etc that you like. However, that would have nothing to do with whether or not that religion is based on a true God. I just dont see how anyone who believes in a God could base their religion off of something that doesn't necessarily move them towards the correct God.

It does make sense to a person looking for a god or a religion to belong to. You aren't, you could care less. So I think that's why you aren't really understanding.

After all, none of this meant anything to you, it was just your little experiment. Which I don't blame you for doing.



Let me explain. Most religions claim that there is only one God which belongs strictly to their religion. Therefore, all other God-based religions are based on a false God(s). Let's say that the religion that worships the actual God is called Religion A. It is quite possible that Religion A does not teach morals you follow. Therefore you would go to religion B, C, or D whom all teach the morals you believe. However Religion A is the only religion that worships the correct god. By going to Religion B, C, or D, you are worshipping a false God - one that doesn't exist. Thus, depending on Religion A, you could go to Hell for not praising the correct God.

It doesn't make sense to choose a God-based religion based off of morals because morals so not correlate with a valid God. Morals are simply what you think is right or wrong. Not necessarily what God thinks is right or wrong.
