I have to believe that in todays society, whether you kneel in front of a rock, a church, a cross, a river, a mountain, anything of your choosing, it should never be met with the need to clarify. It's good you know what your rock is, it's good to know the neighbor has a rock to stand next too, and I myself have my own personal rock I stand near. I think, respect for everyone's rock is critical to the beautiful balance of humanity. <br>Rebecca<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917902963747134022.post-18116492533553999002005-09-08T16:34:00.000-07:002005-09-08T16:34:00.000-07:00Oh Derek...I'm so glad you didn't let thisperson g...Oh Derek...I'm so glad you didn't let this<br>person get to you.

Thank you for your kind words.....morning my friend. Thank you for your kind words.... and I think you needed to say this today. People can be so shallow and unwilling to bend. I respect your faith, and your ability to see God everywhere. Some people are so sure their way is the only way......... and that could not be further from the truth. My God is everywhere and in all things (and all people). Tolerance and respect and sanctity are taught in the bible as well.

We each learn to worship in our own way and who is to say that we are not praying, in our own way, to the same God. This was a very well thought out and written entry.

I find it interesting that people can accuse others of worshipping "another God." I mean, if our intention is to pray to the One Who IS, then aren't all our prayers, as unique and varied as they are, all going in the same direction?

So... in that way of thinking, that they felt the need to send such an email is really only a statement of where they are coming from. Ignoring darkness is the best thing to do. <br>Peace, VirginiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917902963747134022.post-36771886503527045542005-09-11T18:55:00.000-07:002005-09-11T18:55:00.000-07:00I dont really understand what is going on here but...I dont really understand what is going on here but religion can be a huge debate turn into battle for anyone.
