Let me see if I understand what you are saying...

You would like to see some of the more positive aspects of other faiths besides just Christianity that help people reach enlightenment or inner peace; things like meditation and the different forms.

What you don't want to see happen is someone come down on them for their practices because it is not what this other someone considers "kosher," for the lack of a better word.

You would like to see these other things explained in depth or at least in some detail so you can study it, perhaps try it, and not have anyone judge or condemn you for it.

How am I doing?

And as for your own faith, that of Christianity, so far it seems (to me, anyway) that you are the only one that has stuck your neck out and have been able to quote chapter and verse on what and why you believe.

I'm a little disappointed myself because there is a member here that knows so much about Christianity, the Bible, the writers of The Word. Not mentioning any names because I don't want to put her on a spot... but I'm still hoping.

I don't know... there may be some that are still a little afraid of what to post since it's been drummed into us to stay away from the topic of religion. Now that we have this forum, we want to keep it and don't want to cross any lines.

Perhaps I'll venture out here... I've always been interested in the ties between Judaism and Christanism. Maybe ... possibly... we could get someone who practices Judaism to state a point and the Christians can tie it to our own faith WITHOUT argument, but just a revelation.

Am I anywhere close?
