((hugs))<BR/><BR/>Cathy- I feel badly that many people have had no exposure to the Bible. We had one religion class a week in our public school, but I don't believe that happens any more.

I won't expound on this. I don't agree with any of it but I do practice my own faith and I know I am a good Christian. Your joys hit home with me. I'm looking for another church to attend and I'll keep looking until I find the one for me.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-2690925492498661882007-08-24T20:01:00.000-04:002007-08-24T20:01:00.000-04:00I like this song by Dar Williams:http://www.lyrics...I like this song by Dar Williams:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.lyricsdownload.com/dar-williams-the-christians-the-pagans-lyrics.html" REL="nofollow">http://www.lyricsdownload.com/dar-williams-the-christians-the-pagans-lyrics.html</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-59576698656521948702007-08-24T07:22:00.000-04:002007-08-24T07:22:00.000-04:00Ruth - I'd missed this and found it quite lovely a...Ruth - I'd missed this and found it quite lovely and reassuring. Just yesterday I asked a Chinese friend about her religious beliefs and she said quite the same thing you did here. There's a lot of good in the human heart and great wisdom in the words of the Bible.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-3360559846460407622007-08-23T08:00:00.000-04:002007-08-23T08:00:00.000-04:00I always feel so blessed that, while our paths dif...I always feel so blessed that, while our paths differ we can come together and talk about them with each other. I always love this too:<BR/><BR/>"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."<BR/><BR/>When there is overlap of beliefs that we can both completely agree with. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-17409958321101389832007-08-23T06:34:00.000-04:002007-08-23T06:34:00.000-04:00Great meme Ruth.
