Thanks for posting. I am learning from past mistakes and do make an
effort, when I completly disagree with something, to be mindful of the
other person, or step off for a bit if that's what it takes.

I do not agree with or condone the atrocities being committed everyday,
in our own backyards or around the world. I do not agree with or condon
force feeding one's belief or faith onto another but we are each
entitled to what makes us feel complete and with a sense of warmth and
being. I am not speaking to the fanatic's, the extremists, those who
hate, harm, maime or kill in the name of their religion or their God.
We could fill volumes of forums with the horrific and tragic things that
are happening everday.

I guess my point is, there is so much wrong with the world today, tragic
and horrific wrongs, worse than someones faith, and we should be
respectful of eachother and not contribute to it further, but instead
learn to accept and understand eachother and work together, each in our
own small way, to change those wrongs, make this a better place not only
for ourselves, but our children, and their children and so on. If that
makes me naieve, then so be it. But instead of turning on a neighbour I
will continue to do what I can to make whatever small changes I can and
leave positive footprints behind. Even when I disagree with somone or
something.

In regards to having the right to pray in school or the workplace, I saw
a special last night, there are religions other than Christian and
Catholic's that are force feeding their faith, and taking it to the
courts, for their right to pray and practice their religion but I don't
see anyone speaking to that, only against Christians and Catholics that
wish to pray in peace. Why is that?

While everyone is free to post, discuss and debate, there is no need for
sarcasm, ridicule, mockery, cheap shots, name calling and the such.
It's spreading like herpes in here. I try to keep an open mind,
understand and learn from other's by what they post but only shut down
when people do that. I respect those that disagree or debate without
making another feel what they have, think or believe is worthless and
they are so right.

Understanding, acceptance, respect, and tolerance of another person and
what is important to a person, even if you do not agree with it. We are
each different. We each have our pain, sorrow, and hurt. We also have
our happiness, compassion and love. When people in society learn to
accept that the world would be much better off.
