Could it be concivable to think that if one removed all the rules/laws belonging to all religions, wouldn't we realize that they all, in reality, are all saying the same thing?

Zoroaster (zoriastrism/the first monotheistic belief in the world) stated it simply and beautifully:

1. Say Good Things
2. Do Good Things
3. Think Good Things

If we all (regardless of our religeous affiliation) followed these three simple acts, it wouldn't matter which religion we followed (or didn't follow), for in our basics, these are the only fundamentals we need in order to at least tolerate each other and treat one another with respect!!
Rules seperate us from each other, making us falsely believe that: "I am better because, my religion says/does so and so." If we look real closely at all of the great religions, I think we would see how, in fact, they are all saying the exact same things and sadly, the joke will fall upon those that haven't realized what fools they are for not having seen that!
