Is that a Jerry Seinfield uniqueness that you got there, or is it somethin' else? Anyhow, you're unique my friend...



Do you have any ascendants that speak Yiddish, perhaps?

My grandpa! He speaks Yiddish!

That's cool
I'm currently reading a book about a Russian Jewish girl that speaks Yiddish. It's translated into English, though it still uses some Yiddish terms

I'm a Roman Catholic, but from what's on there, Liberal Christian.

Christian.

I believe that the bible is a guide, not a science book or a list of rules. I tend to follow the messages of the bible (ie, Love thy neighbor, Love God, get along with eachother, find happiness in God, unconditional forgiveness/love etc...) instead of single passages (ie, gay people are going to hell, allow slavery, women are under the authority of men) because single passages can be translated and interpreted in many different ways. I also tend to take into account the culture of the time when a book of the bible was written and the original language/other possible or probable translations for the words. I think people worry way too much about being a "Good" christian and thus ruin the whole point of being Christian in the first place. I don't think religion can be proven or disproven by science, and I don't think science alone can add meaning to life. As a side note, I believe in evolution Finally, I respect everyone else's religion and don't try to tell peope they're wrong; to mess with someone else's religion is just not acceptable in my mind.

I also don't think God is the Great Smiter, waiting to pull his .44 magnum on anyone who messes up. We all mess up constantly and it's be expected and not to dwell on. Likewise, I think we should forgive eachother of our faults and wrong-doings because we're all human.

Agnostic is believing that if there is a God, it is unknown. Pantheism is knowing that there is a God, but the god is in the forces of nature.

I keep getting Pantheism mixed up with Unitarianism. Do you know what Unit. is Xini? I know, but am seeing if you understand it like I do, if not, then I would most likely be in the wrong.

I just looked up unitarianism. I don't see how you could get those two confused. Unitarianism is the belief that there is no trinity (father, son, and holy spirit) that is equal (they all have seperate ranks). Panthiesm is belief that any god (not Jesus or the Christian god) lives and controls through the forces and laws of nature.
