What I believe

I have seen a lot of people, me included, concluding that any other branch of Christianity is weird and wrong, not to mention other religions. The problem I have with that is 1. God is love and so it is basically a waste of earthly time to hack on others instead of loving them. 2. We each have faith of what is true and and we should respect that. 3. I believe we are all very much alike only with different beliefs and that is okay. 4. Are we so insecure about our own faith that we have to put others down 5. The president of my church quoted other religious leaders and history, even traditions if he thought it was really good and right , and i respect that.
If we conclude that Catholics are weird(sorry it's just for the sake of example) we'll not take the time to ask them "what do you believe?" and "this what i think" and find out we have much more in common plus if we disagree , we still love each other.
I have friends that are Muslim, Catholic , Jewish(duh), Mormon(duh) , Baptist, Buddhists, And I find out that at the end of the day we are all children of God, people, generally good, many times confused, wanna think we know it all etc. I find it concerning that if you are conservative , you become narrow minded and stick to your own tiny comfort zone people that are a copy of you more or less. It is quite abstract but what do yo think?

well dearest, your blog already seems to have improved since i looked at it last night. i like this layout you picked. did you figure out how to do the links? you just click on customize (up at the top by your email address when you're logged in) and then click add page element on that page that pops up. in that big list of things there's one that says links, and then you type in the URLs for all the links you want to put up there.
