Yes, if they view the Bible as explicit, than I can totally see your point! But if they don’t, there’s always room for improvement and salvation in heaven. I think it’s a very messy time for this country and its religious views.

I wouldn’t necessarily say that. People can believe what they want. My issue is that when people say they follow “all” the teachings of Jesus and walk in his ways, they don’t really mean it. They may get into heaven, who knows? We’re not their God. It’s just very ironic though!

And understanding is key to relating. I have seen myself relate to so many of the religions in this world, solely because I allow myself too. I’m not closed off. And as an American, I SHOULD BE OPEN TO IT. religious freedom??? Like the whole point America started in the first place??

The negativity I witness between people in different religions is that no one understands each other. Most religions thrive on the idea of “love”… but loving is included with larger discussion of understanding.
