I enjoy studying religions and spiritual beliefs very very much. I would enjoy going among any group and learning more. Right now the Sufis and Tibetan Buddhists are getting my attention. I am interested in ecstatic experience of the Divine and would like to witness it first hand.

I'm hoping that for my dissertation (I'm studying folklore & mythology) I'll get to go to India and Rome. A big part of it is comparing Eastern and Western religions, and the Aryans and the Vedics seem to be the only place in history (besides very recent times) when they met and influenced each other.

Only in the sense of studying the variety of belief. It is amazing how strongly people will believe superstitions.
If I were to travel to study belief, it would have to be in Iran and maybe Israel.

I enjoy learning how people on yahoo respond to religion & spiritual. Only because I learn how people think write or express themselves.
I have learned quite a lot. I know what I believe already, but I learn more all the time. I also grow in my faith & understanding in my Christian faith.
I discern antichrist false accusations, false doctrines, etc... But it is interesting what others believe or search.

I would chose either Japan or China for a better look at Eastern faith. I think their beliefs are of interest because they seem to differ so much from our Western beliefs.

Japan or India. It's hard to choose just one. I'd like to study Northwest Native American cultures too....
