What is Mikraite's moral obligation to other religions?

Drealm
We have already encountered other religions. It's possible we'll encounter more for various reasons. Maybe we will even interact with other religions on things like business out of preference or necessity. Should there be a sort of rules of engagement for how to treat people based on what religion they are?

A problem with this sort of diplomacy is that even if we have treat others well, there's no guarantee of reciprocation.

I suppose that Mikraite is officially neutral in terms of how we treat people that are not our culture. I personally think we should treat members of moral religions with at a least a basic level of respect, similar to how the Israelites treated foreigners in their land. We should not actively inflict harm upon them unless they inflicted harm upon us first, and we should protect them from harm if it is easy for us to do so. Even if we do not have a personal investment in other moral religions, I consider it a positive thing if other moral religions flourish in comparison with mainstream modern culture.

Why do Mikraites not follow new Inspired Scriptures?

Just like in the days of Noah, we would be foolish if we rejected Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob right?

I respect the will to follow Torah only, and i am trying to follow Scripture only aswell, but what about the Gospel or the Quran?

Jesus, the son of Mary is the Messiah. Mohammed was a prophet of God.

The 3 scriptures represent 3 different approaches to the same goal.  So if you are successful with one approach, you don't need the others.  That doesn't mean you reject the others, but you don't need to follow them.
