Apparently the state of my tolerance account is somewhat overextended at the present.

Me too, Dyad'ko Bill. Unfortunately, it is an ongoing issue and should society ever forget, just think of Santayana's quote: "Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it in the future."

Those who reject Faith.
  1. Say: O ye that reject Faith!
  2. I worship not that which ye worship,
  3. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
  4. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,
  5. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
  6. To you be your Way, and to me mine.[/list=a]The Holy Qur_an - Sura CIX - translated by Abdullah Yusoff Ali.
 
Mohd, in other words, Live and Let Live right?? I think what Uncle Bill said the other day about no religious conversion being allowed in Nepal, they have the right idea. Without any conversions being allowed, what's there to fight about?
 
Thank you, Bill, Mohd, Arvind, Dave K, Howard, Yvsa, and all of good will.

Some days I want to cry for what is happening to my country and my world. Other days I want to cry for what is happening to my faith and that of others.

An old friend in his 90s insisted the Deity spoke loudest to us in the actions, examples, and words of others.

Who am I to say that the Deity cannot use a Sikh to instruct a Buddhist, a Moslem to instruct a Christian, an agnostic to comfort a Jew, a Native American to...

More to the point, who am I to limit the Deity as to how He can work, just because I fail to comprehend how it can be His design.

Those of any faith who are broken and humbly trying to live their beliefs are my brothers.
For it is my brokeness which lets me touch theirs, and their brokeness to touch mine.

Namaste - I salute the God within you - is a salute and reminder of what dwells within us also. Where there is charity and love, there is God. And when I forget myself and permit the Deity to care for my brothers though me I am most blessed.

Do what is just, cherish lovingkindness, and walk humbly with your God. This seems for me the right path, you must permit your Deity to choose your own, and I hope our paths cross each other's often.

Those who disagree and wish to preach your tenets for me to live by, first live your own lives by them in a way that makes me want to follow it.
 
As I said, the way I view it is Mother Theresa did it about the best I think it could be done in that part of the world.

Rusty summed it all up about as well as it can be stated.

Love God and love thy neighbor as thyself.

What more is there?

And,on a more practical note;
There are very few things that a man can`t fix,

If he has enough money and a 30-06.

Adjust radius for khukukri.

Noted and appreciated, Ghost. Personally, I'm in love with a mint Venezualan FN49 7x57, but have '06 M1 "Match" barreled and "tanker" Garands for spares.

My neck is almost fused from arthritis, so the milder 7x57 doesn't give me the headaches the '06 does.
