How about if everyone discusses what they agree on. Talk about the
positive similarities instead of trying to bash religions. If most
people put 10% of the energy they use trying to deride a religion and
HONESTLY look into the religion you might be surprised at what you
learn. I am a Christian but am very curious about other religions. When
I was in Calgary(there is a large Asian population) I went to Chinatown
and visited Buddhist Temples all day one day. What a beautiful, peaceful
religion. Go to the source people. Don't fall into the trap of reading
literature from people that became bitter about a religion and left it
and now spend all of their energy on trying to prove how evil or bad the
religion is. If you are a Christian worry about your relationship with
the Lord Jesus Christ and not what religion your neighbor goes too and
trying to convince them they are evil. Worry about yourself first, then
preach the TRUTH.
