DBA- Without the Word of God, the Holy Bible to base every belief upon, you're a spiritual anarchist who is bent on self-destruction.
Your own idolatrous ideas cannot save you, and you have no authority or right to determine what is good and what is evil.
Other books say something else. Your book says those books are false. Those books say your book is false.
I know many of the other books and have burnt them, being saved out of their falsehoods, now knowing only the Bible is the Word of God, the divine revelation of our Great Creator God, the God of Israel. If you don't know that, you're still wandering in your wilderness.

I don't worship a book.
I don't know anybody who does, but I do know that we are to have a proper love and respect for the Holy Bible, the divine revelation, that God has graciously given us and not take it lightly or treat it disrespectfully, dishonoring our Father.

I worship a living God, who speaks to me personally.
If you reject the Bible as the Word of our Great Creator God - who has given us His living Word - you're not worshiping the true God, but are either being conned by demons who can appear as angels of light or are merely letting your deceitful heart mislead you, or a combination of the two. God knows.
Those who recognize and submit Father knows best and the Bible is His Word, let it speak to their hearts and minds, as God intends, inspired by His Holy Spirit that brings it to our attention whether in actual word or biblical principle.

When people say that their religion is better than someone else's religion, it sounds like childish schoolyard bragging. If a religion is so true, then it it is not necessary to preach it. Its truth would outshine all the rest.
At least according to your self-righteous preaching and self-righteous standards, all based upon your idolatrous ideas - nothing concrete or authoritative, unlike the Bible.
Yeshua said the Jews know who they worship and that the Gentiles don't know God. The Prophets basically said the same, as well as the apostles. Pitiful you think you know more than them.
They were merely stating facts, not bragging. There is no room for bragging because everything that's true we have, we have received in varying degrees, and we're to continue to live and learn, so help us God. That's part of what the conversion process is all about: learning to THINK LIKE GOD to increasingly LIVE LIKE GOD and at the resurrection, when we're truly born again, we're transformed and become God - a literal member of the Kingdom-Family of God-Beings - just like the Bible teaches!
Isaiah 55:7-9
7 Let the wicked forsake his way,
And the unrighteous man his thoughts;
Let him return to the LORD,
And He will have mercy on him;
And to our God,
For He will abundantly pardon.
8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.
9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts.
