How to Compare Religions Without Straw-Manning

A fair framework: define terms, read primary sources, and compare the actual claims.

If we’re going to talk about other religions (or different Christian groups), we have to do it with honesty.

Here’s the simple framework I’m using on YouUsHi:

  • Define terms (What do they mean by “God,” “Scripture,” “salvation,” “prophet,” “sin”?)
  • Use primary sources (what they actually say, not what opponents say)
  • Compare core claims (not surface-level similarities)
  • Ask the question underneath the question: What kind of reality does this belief system describe?

The goal isn’t to dunk on people.
The goal is to seek truth and to make sure we’re not building our faith on misunderstanding.
