I appreciate these discussions more than you know. I'm starting to understand the thinking behind the differences in belief. Interesting!

Who says people shouldn't discuss religion. :-)

It depends how far apart we are, Joan. I can only get involved so far on your fine forum because our differences (religious) are just too great. I know you will understand that. Our respect for one another as human beings and friends though, is quite a different matter. :-)

I think you are more than generous with us Christians. I'm not sure I'd be as kind as you have been in responding to us, a group of folks whose beliefs are on another scale entirely from what you know and believe as truth. One thing I love about you is that you have always been open to receive me as a friend for no other reason than me being "me". You are rare in that you not only look beyond differences in religion, but that you also allow me a platform to express my views without protest or prejudice. I have no doubt you loved greatly by God.

I truly believe that the willing heart does not recognize differences. We are a thing apart religiously, but we are all united on this good earth to share the bonds of friendship if we see clearly, see past what might tear us apart. See instead what might bring us together! :-)

I know I owe you an e-mail, been procrastinating getting to it. One of these days I will. I have to catch up on work, the forums, the grandkids, and all that good stuff, but I will get to it, I promise.

I know you've got your hands full. My granddaughter only visits, while your grandchildren are under the same roof. My time is more my own than yours is and I understand completely.
