I agree e- but each of us defines our own tools. YOurs may be medication and prayer - somebody else may depend on medication alone - and somebody else might be purely spiritual To each his own. I must just append a short commentary :On Saturday as i waited for my friend to give me a ride to synagogue, I saw my Buddhist neighbours across the road preparing for their wedding with all its ritual parephenalia.Then the Muslim Pakistani family two doors up came outside - mama, papa and 5 children,, to take a family walk together.In our townhouse complex there are also SHintos, Hindus, Mormons, Catholics, Russian and Greek orthodox, all manner of Protestants and even some atheists and agnostics. I noticed last year that the majority of houses did not have Christmas lights or decorations. YEt nearly 100% had halloween decorations. Which indicates to me that we are all identifying ourselves as Americans - but that the concept of america as a christian country is , at least in my small part of it, not an accurate one. Moral - yes, but not purely christian. Make of that what you will. I mean no disrespect. hilary blue Merlin H Brown wrote: > > ken > Although I am a Christian, I do not support using this board to support a > specific religion.
