What kind of beliefs would the 2 young people have?
Would they believe in God?
Would they be seeking spiritualism?
Would they be looking forward to going to Heaven?
Lots of questions? |
Indeed BigJohn, I liked your input...it helps staying open mind and toward tolerance to understand that everyone has or have had different circumstances in life and we are all coming form different "places"...it is more about people behavior then about the words they choose as the concept of God and heaven could be inner and in the heart, but maybe a person might never have the words for it, or maybe not the same words, or maybe see or express it in images differently...
As i study or listen or learned about different type of people, culture, practices, philosophy, religions... i try to keep in mind that maybe we are saying the same things... but only in different ways.
A step towards World Peace :)
