Do you ask questions in order to give or to receive an answer?
This is kind of a survey for people who also ask questions. It's interesting to guess which answer an asker will choose, especially when the subject is religion. Sometimes a person's question suggests they will choose the answer that agrees best with what they already believe. Other times the question seems to be asked by a true seeker.
I'm hoping to start a discussion here. What about you? Why do you ask?
Hmmm... I thought I added something to this already. I probably just clicked the wrong button again which is just as well because I forgot what I said already so it would likely waste your time to read it too. I did think of something different to say, though.
I wrote this because I find it annoying when somebody asks a question and then summarily closes discussion by picking a "best answer" as soon as they find one they agree with. What if somebody else has given an answer I find interesting and I hope to get them to expand on that thought, or clarify what they mean? I can't do it because "the truth" has already been found.
Oh, right. That's what I said. By true seeker, I don't mean someone who is seeking anything like a true God. I mean someone who is truly open to finding the unexpected.
"Jesus loves the little children." I believe all children are born true seekers. They don't know anything, but they want to understand. "Not all who wander are lost."

Hmmm... Now that *is* strange. The gray line said I had thousands of characters left, and yet it cut my last comment off. That was: Note to self: Click COPY, then submit.
...Then verify original copy was posted. OK, then.
