I like Father K a lot. I am an atheist, but I respect his opinions. I also like David M. He seems very sincere in his quest for universal love. Pangel and Lamb of God are really great pagans. This is just a start. What do you think? I know we have done this before, but it seems like there are a lot of negative people around right now. I would like to see some smiles out there!
Ps I got FIVE thumbs down for promoting tolerance. Jeez Louise!

I am one of the pesky Christians, hehehe... I love all of you who can give a good debate without being nasty, Christians, Athiests, Pagans alike... When people realize that we can always disagree and not hate each other, I think it's great! Who doesn't love a good debate?!!!

Loki Spakona (or however you spell it), David M, Vinslave, Pangel, Icarus, Contemplative Chanteuse, Adia Arek (azrael something or other now), ProudMuslimahBeautifulIslam, Gratvol, Quantrill, Susan J, Lokasenna, Kallan, I WALK FUNNY, ZeroCool, BadSquirrel, Adam T is hilarious, Amalthea, Weemaryanne, LadySuri, Bettierage, Mirage, and a bunch more.
And I don't see any of these as being on opposite sides of the fence. But I wanted to name people I really respected who have different religious beliefs from me.

I have respect for all religions, however....What I can;t deal with is when a religious leader says that this is wrong and this is right but not tell you why? Its like a threat a parent gives a child, do this and you will go to hell...why is that?
I am pagan and love my faith..there is none of that...its all about respect of others and loving our environment. What if different faiths had a job to do like all creatures serve a purpose. Pagans are keepers of the earth...what are other religions? Catholics could be what NOT to go by..sorry but I have my issues even though I respect them.....somewhat! There faith is wickedly strong.
Good question by the way...I run a yahoo religious group and this sort of thing comes up a lot.
Blessings to you all....

Go and see the question posted by Sothosa about her daughter just becoming a Satanist and then ask me why I am on R&S.
You! You're beautiful! There are some wonderful people here and I just feel so discouraged when I hear these things. This is when I get angry. I try to be tolerant and understanding but when that ignorant hate mungering element starts throwing Satan this and burn that...tears of frustration...that just ....there are no words.
Nobody..ditto...you all rock!
Love you to all, for better or worse. Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you are awesome for promoting tolerance... I am a Christian, but love to hear the viewpoints of people with other beliefs. I ask questions to learn, not to be mocked. There are a lot of cool people on here, and unfortunately some ignorant ones too. =0)

And if I cared long adequate approximately your submit, i'm able to make the comparable checklist going against republicans. i could desire to remark on a pair of the failings you indexed nonetheless.. wellness care & coverage. what's humorous approximately this remark, is that no you will pay for their very own wellness care. ok, so which you have coverage. You circulate to the surgeon, you pay 20$ on an identical time as your coverage covers something. the place does the mioney the coverage paid come from? Oh, specific, via pooling all the month-to-month money from absolutely everyone who's insured via them. you're paying somebody else's scientific costs in spite of if that's thru your coverage rates or your taxes. you're paying slightly extra desirable than those on medicaid and medicare, yet you nonetheless at the instant are not paying for your own wellness care. maximum democrats do not desire all point out of god and faith silenced. What we tend to desire is for it to be stated in suitable places, or circulate away room for the hundreds of alternative religions that exist in this u . s . to be freely displayed in the comparable venue. My adventure with the orientation element is that a straight away republican will combat to verify the gay can not proportion the comparable admire the republican himself demands. no person cares what your own opinion on the issue is, in common terms in spite of if or not they are in a position to have criminal next of kinfolk status and parental rights to their toddlers, alongside with various different substantial rights they don't presently have get admission to to.

I truly do not deserve so much praise because i also fall short and accidentally hurt others. To say the fences do not exist is delusional. I appreciate all of those, like yourself, that seek to destroy the fences. Eyeson among the protestants as well as Suzanne desrve high praise as beautiful examples of humanity. Father K has eliminated any negative feelings i ever had towards the Anglicans and agrees with me that the schism can be overcome. Acid Zebra is highly intelligent and is not overly antogonistic with religious folks if people are not trying to delete his accounts. Kallan deserves high praises for nearly nonstop efforts to build bridges. Redqueen has shown me much Love and Respect. Philosophizer has adopted terminology from me. The Seal is a very interesting truth seeker and quite helpful. Many Muslims, especially Adia Arek who changed his name to something i can't spell, became my friends because i sought peace with them. The Buddhist Yogini is my friend. Many fundamentalists have proven to me that they are not all Fundanazis. Godzilla and that cookie monster guy have both been kind to me. Homosexual people have sent me thankyous for fighting the gaybashers. In fact it is impossible for me to mention all.

is there really an opposite side of the fence?
while we each have different beliefs, and opinions..
we are all on the same playing field.
I do respect a lot of users on here that do not have my beliefs, of my opinions, and especially my sense of humor. but I thank God for that, and i do respect and appreciate their belief and integrity.
sorry, no name at my age names are really hard.

My next door neighbor, on the opposite side of the fence, is a very attractive young lady with the sexiest long, curly red hair. She is very sweet. I like her a lot.
