I need a Christian and a Jew!!

Muslimwoman · 05-17-2009, 09:15 AM

Hi everyone

Sorry I haven't been around much, way too much work and now this.

After months of contemplating it I have finally started my new blog about Islam.

The blog posts will be translated into arabic as well, to help facilitate discussions and try to combat some of the misconceptions from both sides.

I would like to have an interfaith section of the blog, where we discuss a given topic from our own faiths perspective and try to poinbt to the similarities in our beliefs rather than always concentrating on the differences.

I will only be co-ordinating this section of the blog and the Muslim perspective will be given by a number of Arab Muslims I have roped in.

I am going to try to get away from this finger pointing "your religion says xyz and you believe abc".

We don't have to have group hugs and sing cum bye yah but I would like opinions from the horses mouth and no "we're right and you lot are all going to hell" talk.

If you would be interested in seeing the blog and giving a little time to this project, or know anyone from your faith that may help please will you let me know.

Thank you.

Now if youi are interested in an interfaith liberal christian perspective I'd be glad to participate, but as many will tell you none of us, especially me can represent all of Christianity

Sally! I'm so glad to see you around!

Of course, I will want to read your blog.

I'd be happy to give my Christian perspective, but it's liberal and (to some Christians) heretical, so I don't know if that would assist or not.

Thank you gang .. to be honest I would like liberal and conservative opinions. I want to show that not every Christian, Jew or Muslim believes the same things so pigeon holing people as a group is just silly and misguided.

Wow it feels so good to be back among friends

Im a conservative christian.. let me know if you would like me to help.

bananabrain · 05-19-2009, 09:06 AM

however, the blog will not take off unless you allow people to post comments freely and then take an active hand in moderating it.
