I wonder if it may be fair to say that spirituality is less of a hot topic than religion and religion is less of a hot topic than church. <BR/><BR/>Also, I wonder if it is fair to say that those who are firm and confident in their beliefs, no matter what they are, tend to be more willing to discuss other perspectives. This isn't universally true: some fundamentalist groups in a variety of faiths don't appreciate dialogue. But otherwise, I think it is true. A confident Christian may enjoy an interchange on religion with a Muslim, Hindu or Atheist. While someone wrestling with their own faith or belief might consider the same conversation someone's attempt to convert them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129977618289103652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2236664964489234024.post-13181974564832084342009-02-27T14:44:00.000-06:002009-02-27T14:44:00.000-06:00I'm only familiar with this country and not others...I'm only familiar with this country and not others, but in my experience the number of out-and-out atheists is tiny. What I do know is a lot of is people who consider themselves spiritual or religious but who have no interest in being active in the organized church. I would raise the question of whether this latter group isn't more difficult to engage than those who claim to be atheists. Some atheists seem to enjoy an interchange on the subject of religion, whereas the lukewarm types seem to take efforts to engage as personal criticism.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
