For example, portions of Tibet practice a mixture of Buddhism and Bon religions.

I also know some Native American/Christian people. And Universal Sufi/Christian/Pagan lovers of God as well.

With all that Heinz-57 religion flying around, one of them has to love God, doesn't it?

John 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.


Do you think God is obligated to accept all forms of worship?

Love of God is not limited to any single religion or even non-religion.

Not obligated. More like welcoming.

Sounds like you're pushing Omnism to me.

I'm only looking at a Loving God with infinite expressions.

You're looking at a god who tolerates sin.

You think that, as long as the intent is okay, God will overlook everything else.

Read what happened to Nadab & Abihu in Leviticus 10.

Right intent -- wrong offering.

Love isn't something that aligns well with sin. At least that's been my experience in life.

I wouldn't call an infinite Loving God "intent".
