I do lots of reading about religion because I do lots of reading about all sorts of things and I find it fascinating to discuss. Not in a way that promotes or bashes any particular religion but in the same way you would learn about another culture. Like studying history or literature (of which religion seems to have a lot of both).

I do not affiliate myself with any particular religion or set of beliefs. I find interesting aspects in many studies and enjoy learning more about them. I've done reading on everything from Christianity to Zoroastrianism to the varieties of Buddhism and Taoism, Hinduism and Toltec practices, etc. etc..

Learning about anything fascinates me. I would very interested in reading input on various religious ideas. And I would not promote or admonish any one over another. General spirituality can be quite an interesting area to explore...any Alan Watts readers out there?

Can it be done without causing hurt feelings and flames? I don't know.
