    Interfaith as a Faith

    I am sorry Brian but that does not quite hold water. Pardon! “dialogue with everybody” yet “everyone” does NOT include some that you have “ejected!” That seems quite illogical to me. 'Everyone' has of course to mean you mean 'everyone' or else you are simply confusing this issue. Are you...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    But Brian this comment alone shows me that you sadly fail to understand the very nature of fundamentalism and are that you are overtly trusting. Fundamentalism by virtue has never and will never accept any “common ground” for it sees all other faiths as being spurious and in rival competition...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Fine, okay, great – It’s nice to kick around ideas and opinions and everyone is naturally entitled to their own BUT the truth remains; evangelists ONLY become interested in interfaith to gain new converts as this exercise is what their holy book demands. To preach the Gospel of Christ crucified...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    So many words and so much talk over an extremely simple issue. This point needs addressing ‘again’. The Church in all its forms exists to gain converts not to understand other faith. The only understanding it does is akin to how one army general studies another before a battle to achieve...

    Tried once again to 'edit' my little slip – ‘historical’ not “hysterical truths” was the word I was after above .. What's up with the edit function??? :rolleyes:

    Interfaith as a Faith

    One or two serious points need to be addressed herein... I’m sure that Ruby can answer this one but it has to be said that ‘fundamentalism’ is the number one enemy simply because it demands total and unquestioning allegiance to a doctrinal plan which is elitist, biased against others and...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Yes, there can be no possible allegations of "intolerance" which ever stand up against one who only ‘warns’ in fairness about very real missionary dangers. I reiterate that clever evangelists have been for many centuries abusing the trust, friendliness and blanket naivety of others at...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Thanks Ruby, sadly until some promoters of interfaith between rampant fundamentalism and the more ‘trusting’ types are actually at the receiving end of what this is all about they will never be able to appreciate what persons like you and I are seeking to explain to them in good faith. They will...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Sadly it would seem that some are quite incapable of seeing a wolf at the door – even when one gets its teeth into their flesh. If we persist in alluding to ‘Christian fundamentalism’ then the fact is that the very first commandment ("I am the Lord your God. You shall have no other gods before...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    BTW – here is more on the fundamentalist group ‘Christian Voice’ which is heavily behind the Jerry Springer Opera protests which I mentioned. They, like other evangelicals, are against abortion, euthanasia, gay rights, other faiths etc and are supported by countless everyday religious people who...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Caution is alas recurrently mistaken for paranoia. This is an old truism which still holds water today, however many can not face this truth (or simply do no want to) for it deeply ‘challenges’ their subconscious private leanings to what they perhaps fear the most! So my well- meant views...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    ? And that is quite a 'mystifying' comment in itself! :confused: I shall respond to your other comments when time permits me to - yet for now I will simply say that once again you have missed/ignored in fact all the main points which matter and especially the one which asks you how you will...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    To me your view is ‘naïve’ and very dangerous! Interfaith is yes agreed an open system that is exactly WHY it has to be made aware of the clear dangers posed by the infiltration from the forces of missionary fundamentalism. Why you seem blind to this fact is simply amazing to me!

    Interfaith as a Faith

    InLove I am rather surprised that you seem to find me the enemy when all I have done is express a fair desire for others to be made aware of the clear dangers of interfaithing with fundamentalism as you appear to be promoting herein. I feel the "danger" lies in your words - not mine and this...

    Interfaith as a Faith

    Re: Interfaith as a ruse to gain converts! Thank you for all your various offering herein but although I admit that the history of a range of faiths is especially important we must ‘not’ lose track of the main point which is that fundamentalists become interested in interfaith for ‘one’ main...
