> But there are so many beliefs... why would one be more important than another? I don't think my faith is "THE" faith...the ONLY faith....it's just the one I am following. I have never been one to think that I have the answer, the only answer....there are so many ways to God....just like there are so many people. We all find our ways....our paths. It's painful to hear someone say that their way is the only way...

I am not clear if your post is in response to mine, or referencing a previous post on the site. I will assume that you are referring to a previous post, because my point was to defend the ability of those who post at this site to write openly of their faith without fear of being blocked. That would include all faiths, not just mine. But I would like it to include mine too.

A case in point is that your faith is open to several ways to get to God. I respect that. I don't happen to agree with it, but I would defend your right to say it. Now if I stated that in my faith there is only one way to God, and that is through Jesus Christ, would you defend my right to say that?

I would like to add that if I weren't so strong in my faith, I could easily be offended or condemned by reading that my faith profession is "painful" for someone to hear.
