"Say Something Good About Another Religion/Spirituality Thread" -
April 8th 2009, 02:58 AM
Since no one can seem to agree with each other, let's say something good about another religion. Say your belief, and say something good about another.
I'm Christian.
Atheists are pretty dang intelligent most of the time.
Geek? Nerd? More like intellectual badass.

I'm a Latter-day Saint.
I believe that the way everyone chooses to conduct their religious beliefs is something to be proud of. Everyone worships in the way they percieve to be correct; this is honourable no matter what I believe.

I'm an atheist. I'm not exactly Christianity's biggest fan, but it's inspired some beautiful art, music, architecture etc. The same applies to many other religions, too.

I'm Agnostic (a bit of Christian too) I think that all religions are fascinating to learn about, but when I'm feeling down reading the Tao Te Ching cheers me up c:

I'm pagan.
Many Christians are such kind-hearted, genuine people. I can honestly say that I owe a good portion of my sanity to a nun. ^_^ And I have always found comfort in Christian hymns.
They see the love of Christ in all, I see the love of Spirit and the Earth. Really, it's the same goal.
Love this thread. ^_^

I'm mostly atheist, partly agnostic.
I REALLY respect Theraveda Buddhists. I considered myself one once. They are the closest religion to actually being atheists, as they don't believe in a god, and their Eightfold Path is a wonderful set of 'Ten Commandments'. If I had to choose a religion, it would be this one by a long shot.

I'm Jewish.
I love paganism for its connectedness to the rhythms of the Earth and the sky.

Still Pagan.
I can still (sometimes) be touched by a Catholic homily. Catholic means "universal" for a reason...

I'm Pagan too
Even though I dont believe or agree with Christianity, I still think the peace it brings some people is beautiful.
Yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
But everything that lives is born to die
And so I say to you that nothing really matters
And all you do is stand and cry.
