Respect and support

It is important to me that we don't criticise and judge others, in fact, we must respect and support all other religions.

This is a call to all religions out there to be respectful, tolerant and supportive to all other religions.

The most important things in life are love, kindness and compassion and helpfulness and I feel we can all try to practice this more. There is all too much fighting in the world between religions and it is totally unnecessary.

I wish all you other religions out there great happiness and peace in your heart and the wisdom not to go out on a mission to criticise other religions.

We are all human and we fail many times in our attempts not to judge those who think different than we, but we can at least try harder to create harmony between all religions. 🙂

A thread about being nice. A good idea, but it is an unfortunate liklihood that it goes sour. But I agree, judging can be bad, however, I think there is a fine line between judging and rebuking..

sure is. can't imagine what a world would be like if all religions got along. they would pretty much all hold hands and sing that ray Steven's song "everything is beautiful."

You alwas focus simply on other religions. There are many people in the world who are a-religious.

I'm nice..... 😊

😆 allegedly

If only we could see how such an idea would change the world. Good job Wonderer. 👆

A valid point.

The concept applies not only to religion, but also to beliefs and our own personal likes/dislikes.

Yeah. But I don't read Wonderer's statement that way. imo its much easier to achieve harmany between religoins than to work outside of them.

Well, yes, because the post specifically mentioned religion.

I was merely expanding the idea.

You hit on something interesting here. We all make judgements, and while the word has a negative connotations, judgements are not all intrinsically bad. I don't think someone is capable of not judging anymore than they are capable of not feeling emotion. I am aware that the analogy is slightly incongruous; however, in both situations the ultimate outcome depends on how you act upon those judgements or emotions.

A judgement is a decison, and certainly can be passed with information. Its when people start judging on little or no information that it becomes a problem.

And everyone judges....severely.

It's simply about being loving and kind. That's it. No need to complicate things.

But you can't escape what it means to be human...despite what you aspire to be.
