>Well doesn't it say "I'm your sole provider of spiritual supplies and you won't shop for them anywhere else"? I admit it doesn't necessarily follow that the provider doesn't serve others in the same way, but such an exclusivity clause sounds to me like an exclusivity clause. Many may think it does work both ways, at least for their own brand of religion, so if they're on his side, so is he on theirs.

No, I don't think it breaks the first commandment.

>One of the major flaws in most of the religions is this idea that everybody else got it wrong.

Well, I do think Hindus have it wrong. But let's say for the sake of argument that the three major religions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity - all of which worship the same God - have it right in that there is only one God and our God is that God and our God created everything there is (we will not discuss why, when, how, how long it took, etc.). Within this supposition, there is no religion, denomination, group, or person who has got it all figured out. God is still mystery. Our errors come when we assume our interpretation is the only correct one and we impose our interpretation and religion on others. We are human. We make mistakes. We can not fully understand the mind or message of God. If nothing else, history shows us that. We are still on a journey and sometimes we get lost. The danger is in saying "I know exactly where I am, where I'm going, where I've been, etc. and since you're not on this exact same path, you're on the wrong path." An honest and humble person - some qualities I think God requires of us - can not make that statement.
