Christian believers: are you comfortable living in a pluralist society?

I am happy to live in a pluralist society in which I can defend the right of people to believe in whatever they wish and defend too my right to disagree with their beliefs. I wouldn't want it any other way.

I wonder if some would defend my right to be a Christian as much I would defend their right not to be one? Hmm....

I am most comfortable living in a society of diversity.

When you only adhere to one religious principal, you get places like Iran where the true leader is the person who the head of whatever religion holds the power.

You also get things like the inquisition.

Also - think about this, if we were surrounded by Christians, what Christians would be in the majority? Would it be Catholic doctrine that ruled? Evangelical doctrine? Fundamentalist doctrine? Moral Majority?

Thank you, I'll stay where I am, where we can discuss and argue religions, and all have part of the process.

I would say I am very comfortable of living in a pluralistic society because only in such a society would there be freedom to follow ones faith. In a monotheistic society there would always be one who decided that only his brand is acceptable. I am not of this world but in it.

Peace Be With You,

No, I would not want only one viewpoint allowed. Primarily, because forcing someone would cause resentment.

So, I'm okay with a pluralist society, as long as allowing other beliefs does not mean that I have to compromise on my relationship with God.

We are not comfortable here. We want to be WITH the Father...

Our mission is to spread the News that God is coming Back and he wants to take YOU with him. Because he loves you so much, he gave his only begotten son, as a sacrifice, to show you how much he loves YOU, above all things. You are most precious and beloved of OUR Father.

When Our mission here is done, We go home, Where we belong. We don`t want this society to be anything. We won`t be here.

This society is: what it is.

It will be up to: all those left behind to do whatever they are allowed to do by the powers and principalities of this world..

We have no desire to change society. Our job is to Tell every creature that Jesus is Lord and He IS coming quickly now.

That`s it!! Nuff Said.. {;-)

Peace & God bless from Texas <><

More than comfortable, thankful for it.

God reveals Himself to me through other people more strongly than anywhere else. And that is not limited to Christian people -- I find God speaking to me through all kinds of people.

His word comes to me from the least likely places, which reminds me that my views about "proper channels" for his revelation are not the same as His views.

The only thing that makes me uncomfortable is how christian beliefs somehow work their way into EVERYONEs private lives. Im sure they wouldnt appreciate if my ideals somehow weaseled into laws they had to follow. Hopefully we are en route to correcting that problem.

No, I want to live with my people, my religion, my culture. Multiculturalism is a piece of Jewish propoganda to subvert WASCPs. It should not be tolerated. Our people need to get over the fear of being labeled as a racist and assert our hegemony.

I'm comfortable. I live my life how I want to. If it's right, it's right. If it's wrong it's wrong. But I don't have the right to judge someone else and their religion, nor do they have the right to judge me and mine.

Obviously you are a local kid and have never got out of your country. Check Saudi as reference and come back with another question and comments
