mutantducky: I'm sorry if you misunderstood my post. I'm not, nor have I recently been, upset with you. I just wanted to voice an opinion contrary to your opinion, that's all. Many Forum members are fortunate enough to live in a country where we all have freedom of speech, and freedom of religion, including a freedom to have no religion. Also, although I am proud to be a Christian, I am also tolerant of other religions. And evangelizing is just not my cup of tea. I work with some Muslims, and some Hindus, and we discuss the differences, and similarities, in our different religions all the time, and we are often fascinated with learning something new about a religion other than our own.

Now give this Bible verse a quick read. Although this comes from the Bible, I'm sure that people from many religions, and those who are not religious at all, would fully agree with it's meaning: And if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. (Isaiah 58:10)
