Are There Universal Truths Shared Among All Religions?

[Killamtropp44]

I've been wondering if there are core principles or values that all religions share. For example, concepts like kindness, compassion, or the "Golden Rule" seem to appear in many traditions. Do you think there are universal truths that transcend specific beliefs? If so, what are they, and why do you think they resonate across cultures and faiths?

There are truths to different religions on my opinion too, just that none except Christianity will get you in God's grace any closer. That's just my personal view on it. But even buddhism (while one of the 10 commandments to not worship idols) still shares a single truth in my opinion, that the body is a temple. But personally if you are Christian then it's best not to confuse yourself with other religions though sometimes it's fun for informative purposes.

That's absolutely fair.

In my point of view, I think that all the good things such as kindness, compassion and forgiveness are all preached by the various religions.
