ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Omnism

Omnism is a belief where someone thinks all religions are true and equal. It's like going to a buffet, where you can choose different foods from different dishes, and you don't have to select just one thing.

Imagine you have different friends who like different things. One likes ice cream, another likes pizza, and another likes carrots. If you want to be friends with them all, you don't have to pick just one thing they all like; instead, you can like them all too. This is like omnism; you can believe that all religions are good and true, and you don't have to pick just one to follow.

Some people think that all religions are different but teach the same basic message: be kind to others, help people when you can, and try to be a good person. People who believe in omnism also think that all religions have good ideas that can help you live a happy life.
