In my case, that couldn't be further from the truth. Jesus teaches (God commands) tolerance and love. Part of that is loving those that are different from you, regardless of why. It may be the psych student in me, but I do feel its on my heart to understand others. I frequently ask people with different faiths all about them, so I can understand them, NOT JUDGE or HATE.

I've learned so much from PCB about the Muslim religion and its helped me to understand her a lot. Its opened a door to who she is and I enjoy knowing that side of her...

This is common practice for me, I have friends of at least four different other faiths besides my own.

Please don't make assumptions like that Richard. Not EVERY religious person is like that.
