How many paths to eternal life?

Monte Sahlin comments on a recent Pew Research Center survey where the following was asked:

As I read a pair of statements, tell me whether the first statement or the second statement comes closer to your own views even if neither is exactly right: My religion is the one true faith leading to eternal life, or Many religions can lead to eternal life.

How would you answer? What did the survey find in the American population? Read on to find out.

Make sure to go to the end of the post where Sahlin provides some of his observations and commentary regarding religion and spirituality in the postmodern context. I think Sahlin's post is quite relevant to the current set of Sabbath School studies on missionaries as agents of hope.
