A breathe of religious fresh air

This article is quite nice. It's about a pastor who was excommunicated from his church for fraternizing with pagans. The pastor's idea is that fostering friendship and understanding between pagan and christian communities is the best way to spread good. He does admit to being a missionary but does it in a very refreshing way and doesn't care that he's only had a handful of pagans come to his church services over the nearly 9 years he's being doing this.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing that, Texas.

I like how those two actually talk and encourage talk, and that's always good. Nothing is worse than spreading false impressions, and only open communication can stop that.

They seem to be on a good path. emoticon

A very interesting article!!

If more Christians AND Pagans were like these 2, maybe we could all get somewhere with each other.

Re: A breathe of religious fresh air

Great article - there does need to be more involvement and joint things between all the religions - I enjoy talking to others about religion of different religions. If you know about something it is rather hard to fear it. emoticon

Re: A breathe of religious fresh air

Arguing about which religion is better is like arguing whether red is better than blue. My philosophy is to pick the one that suites you, and let others do the same... but then, I'm a pagan, and I don't think there is ONE right path....
