Which Religion is Right?

Being of a displaced race it is hard to to find a strong bond with any religion that can be tied to a specific culture or race. Since I am more of a mystic I find myself being label a heretic by my Christian brethren and a kafir (infidel) at times among the religion I losely affiliate with. The big three are not for everyone. In order to convey my point check out a few sayings below:

“To love all men is the greatest benevolence”-Confucianism
"LOVE one another" John 15:12
“Let a man cultivate towards the whole world a heart of LOVE” Buhddhism
“One can best worship the Lord through LOVE” Hinduism
“Those who act kindly in this world will have kindness.” Islam Qur'an 39.10
“Heaven arms with LOVE those it would not see destroyed” Taoism
“It matters not whether you do much or little, so long as your heart is directed to heaven” Judaism, Talmud Berakot 17a

Each religion of the world is right, the examples I used are a small portion of the vast beliefs that are out there. The ultimate religion is that of LOVE, we spend to much time on symbols and a fixed ideology which allows little deviation for independence. The perversion of spirituality is destroying the moral fabric of the world. Until we realize this and allow the misguided to bring what they believe a good end to the world (rapture) our world will never heal. Remember LOVE is the root to our ever expanding worldly tree.
