It seems that everyone believe in his way as the best. But I think there is a big difference between the society behavior regarding this. American society expect everyone to become like them in order to be accepted in their society, and those who don't follow will be isolated for sure. Japanese society never accept non-Japanese and they would be henna gaijin (Strange foreigners) if they follow Japanese way! It means that Japanese know their way the best and uniqe, but special to them and they never accept foreigners in their society even if they follow their way. I think an Islamic society suggest the best way. Islamic society is ready to welcome those who follow their way, but at the same time, easily accept others as different. In other words, Americans tell the world: "Be like us, or never show yourself!", Japanese say: "We are uniqe, no one can be like us!", but an Islamic society believs that human beings are created in different colors, languages, and ethnics; but all of them are toward the same target. Islam shows the best way, and invites all human beings to follow it. But those who don't like to follow, are welcomed as part of the society and have right to be treated in their own way.
