I consider Religion as LAME.

And the most lame thing is world have over 100 different religions, and every of them thinks their religion is right and correct and others are false.

Um... there are four to eight major world religions (depending on the boundaries) and there are large gaps in occurrence/popularity even between those

well, I see it's more prevalent in the East, but in general I don't see it as remarkably religious, especially compared to other places.

yeah, that's one of the main reasons I'm not religious.

Religious Pluralism

the problem is that some precepts of different religions might be exclusive (for example, monotheism), trying to reconcile them can be viewed as heresy by some people.

But do the people there see believing in a religion is so much more better than otherwise?

That would depend on the extent of the acceptance of other religions: although religions may differ on many principles, most of them share some variation of the same moral principle ("Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," Karma, Zakat, etc). Hence, it would be possible to say that you agree with some aspects, but disagree with others. This is NOT the same as saying that the other religion is completely false. The more two religions share with each other, the easier it is to agree. (and this is why I do not understand conflicts between religions)

Also, what you're saying is the completely contradicts the beliefs of the Bahá'í Faith

I don't understand the question
In what way do you mean by "much more better"?

I would not do much for religion. I simple read my King James the 3rd Bible. And try to figure out what some of the chapters are about on my own.

But...like I keep saying:
