I listened to the beginning, Connor, and I read the comments....as a Christian, I believe that Jesus meant what he said, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father but by Me'.....do I have a problem with a Hindu offering a traditional prayer instead of a Christian....it would be a meaningless prayer
to me. :shrug:

So if it means nothing to you, why would you have a problem with someone else's prayer, especially considering that your own likely means nothing to them?
I've never seen much spiritual behavior in any person in gov't, except when they offer token phrases in an effort to get elected.
So, yes, I believe in a singular approach to my faith, through the words of Christ. I also recognize that the world, for the most part, does not. It doesn't surprise me, but it does sadden me.

Because there are other ways of thinking?
However, I am more concerned about the spread of the gospel, than mankind's continual distortions of it.

Fair enough.
Although evangelizing others is cruel.
That's my two cents...I found the first clip more disturbing than the second...but as you have presented two clips that discuss politics and religion, which are against forum rules, I am curious to know what your point is with this?

To be a pain, mostly.
Also, to distract from the general inanity of online chatter.

Reread my post Connor...I don't necessarily have a problem with a Hindu praying....as I don't believe it to be anything more than a tradition to open a session of gov't, not a religious service.

Your second point, my answer is I believe in the words of Christ. I believe they are truth. If others do not, I cannot stop them. We are given free will.

As to your third point, Christ was cruel then...as he commanded us to 'Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age' -reference is Matthew 28:18-20. Either He meant those words, or He lied. I believe He meant them.

I realize to believe in absolutes is unfathomable to many. However, I will choose to be a 'fool for Christ' than worldly wise any day. :) I mean no offense, but I will not change what I believe.
