Thanks buddy!! Great day to YOU!

I occaisionally find myself wondering what would happen if all religious beliefs, religious or otherwise, and even lack thereof, were all boiled down something as simple as “be nice.” Even Santa Claus gives the “naughty” kids something useful.

That’s about the time my mind wanders off and my wife asks me “Where are you?”

As far as I’m concerned, folks are welcome to believe what the wish just as I am. I was raised Catholic and do hold many of those beliefs. I also happen to believe in karma so when it comes to me, anyone with that “burning” stuff in the back of their minds better be careful… “bad karma”

I tend to believe that people who hold particular faiths or beliefs, tend to associate others that hold the same or similar beliefs, under the same “religious label” they’ve chosen to give themselves. Much like the Christian readers you referred to. In a sense, creating a common ground they are comfortable with.

While many religions do seem to have “answers”, that is precisely what many folks need and want. It’s what makes them feel comfortable. For them, understanding the question isn’t as important as believing they have/know the answer. Not neccessarily a bad thing.

I guess what I find troubling sometimes, is so often there’s a need to classify ones self, and sometimes others, under a single umblella. In part, I think it goes back to my initial thought of creating common ground. It really doesn’t matter whether it’s religion or any other subject the need to create some sort of common ground on whatever the particular subject matter in an effort to better relate, even when that common ground is differing opinions on the matter.
