While I applaud the "cuteness" of the parable, it doesn't
actually apply to 
the discussion of religion. The "all roads lead to God" argument is really 
self-destructive.

If there is a God at all, only He can establish the way to reach Him. Now, 
if He, in His sovereignty, were to establish MANY roads, we would be 
constrained to accept such an establishment. However, if He were to 
establish ONE road, that would be an absolute. So, for people who claim to 
be Christians, there can be no universalism of doctrine. The universalist 
church is NOT a church at all, for the Bible that we hold to be the supreme 
authority states:

Jesus saith unto him, "I am THE way, THE truth, and THE life: NO MAN cometh 
unto the Father [God], but by Me." - John 14:6 (all emphases mine)

Any diversion from this absolute truth is heresy and anti-Christ.

Yours in the love of Christ,
Pastor RD Weekly
