How does the belief in the "one true religion" cause racial prejudice?
What will be an ideal response?
Some people are raised to believe that their religion is the one true religion and that they will go to heaven, whereas everyone who believes in a different religion is a heathen who will go to eternal damnation. A person with such a belief system comes to the conclusion that he or she is one of "God's chosen few," which leads that person to value himself or herself over "heathens." Feeling superior to others often leads such a person to devalue "heathens" and then treat them in an inferior way. The influence of the "one true religion" has led to an extensive number of wars between societies that each thought its religion was superior. These societies thought they were justified in spreading their chosen religion through any possible means, including physical force, which has resulted in wars. The belief in the one true religion may be one of the most crucial determinants in developing an attitudinal system of racial prejudice.?
