How about this one Alex, you write about your experience in walking the walk?

How about this one Alex, you write about your experience in walking the walk?

I would prefer to compare apples to apples. The "walk" I walk isn't the same one as you walk. The rules aren't the same for our respective religions, nor are the rewards. If it's really necessary to compare notches on our belts, we should strive to understand what the notches represent, don't we? Anything else and we only sow confusion between ourselves and others. Is that what you seek to do?

I've already stated earlier that I thought the message given was a good one. At the same time, I have been critical of those who would demean and denigrate one belief system in order to advance another. It seems that, in these repeated challenges made to Colofornian, and now myself, you are just trying to be contentious and stir up strife, rather than accept the message for what it offers with peace and gentleness. If you want a fight, take it elsewhere.
