Seeking the Creator All Day Long

It is so amazing how similar the Abrahamic Beliefs are yet how much they seem to quarrel. It seems like the preadolescent spats of siblings. I was just looking at Prayer methods. The Jews can pray, head covered. The Christians can not, but the Muslims may do it.

I observe no boundaries in the study of those who worship the Creator, but don't see one as the best. We construct these elaborate edifices that are said to make us more devout, but it seems they are only barriers against the love we are supposed to give each other.

Sad. Pondering.

Yeah. Since the time of Nimrod we've known you can't build a tower to heaven. Ah well.

Why do you assume that we should have a familiar relationship?

And more importantly, what quarreling exactly are you talking about that seems like it?

This is the nature of traditional religion. Not all are trapped by it.

Weird how we manage to convince ourselves that we know enough about God to start telling others how God wants them to live.

Is there anything that you've been posting about, that you would like to understand better, and that you think someone else might be able to help you with?

Despite the *cultural* differences between the Abrahamic faiths, you will notice that all three approach the throne of God with a cultural show of respect.
