Could the names (labels) such as God, Govinda, Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, and etcetera all be describing the very same "Supreme Being?"

And that the only reason there's such a thing as different religions is because of small details that people become fanatic about; that the Bible, Bhagavad-Gita, Qur'an, Torah, Vedic scriptures and others are all attempting to communicate the same message, just told in different ways?

Discuss.

Ah, but there's still the "Christian One-Shot Deal" and "Reincarnation & Karma" contradiction between the Bible and the Bhagavad-Gita, the Bhagavad-Gita being just as accountable (or perhaps even more) as the Bible.

Was the Bible misinterpreted? Perhaps someone wanted reincarnation removed for the Bible? Maybe the Bible is just plain wrong? Or, on the flip side, maybe the Bhagavad-Gita is just plain wrong?

Refer to the Transmigration thread for specific discussion on reincarnation.

That very well may have been what happened. Werent there certain books that never actually made it into the Bible? And wasnt there some type of fire or something that destroyed certain books and scrolls, before the New Testament was put together? (sorry, I've forgotten most of the details... I think I learned about that in Bible class a few years ago).
