One thing most faiths do agree upon, is consideration for all human kind, despite their differences I'm sure.
I just wanted to say that there's no right or wrong here and it's not even about that. There are ways of communicating spirituality without getting into religious debates, and that is by LISTENING.

Consideration, and maybe understanding are the things I wish for both this forum and for people in general. I wish all people would realize that the limits in this forum were put in place for just that reason. No one group is being more silenced than the other. It just seems that one group keeps bringing up the crying icons and saying things like "I wish I could say more but I'm not allowed anymore"....
To which others reply "oh I understand, there are sooo many of us who feel that way", more crying icons, hugs, etc.
Believe it or not I am a person who counts themselves among the "unnamed religious group". I just feel sad that some people do not feel comfortable enough with their faith that they are not able to show it with thoughtful supportive posts on the positive nature of believing there is something bigger than oneself. Show it by looking for the good in others, not by judging who may be further along the road in their faith than others.
If you truly believe in God's love and deliverance than leave the judgments out of it...... and show the love. Something that has proven hard for some.
Believe it or not I am a person of the "unnamed religious group", but have never felt comfortable posting here within that context because of the feeling that if I still had questions I was judged as just not doing it right. Frankly, I don't feel that the ability to quote scripture is going to get me to heaven any faster, than showing God's love by my personal actions and words will. In fact, if all quoting scripture does is serve to alienate a large group of people than I expect the opposite may be true. But than again it is NOT my place to judge. It is and will remain GOD'S. Thank God
If you feel that you need to elaborate on where your sense of spirituality comes from, than my all means PM the person. Trust me I get the sense that a lot less admirable stuff goes on in PM than that

Thank you for listening ...
