Theunicornhunter 2 Posted July 31, 2003 I found this article which I thought was interesting. The Governor of Tennessee declared a Different Religion week encouraging members to visit a different place of worship. KnoxNews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, not really, in fact I went back to check if I had posted the wrong link. I have visited other churches; I do it a couple of times a year for special events at relative's churches. I did attend Christmas Mass once even though I am not Catholic. I went to one of the smaller churches rather than the cathedral because I didn't think it would be fair to take someone else's spot since I wasn't Catholic. - they gave out advance tickets I also visited church with a co-worker and sat there while the Sunday School teacher slammed my faith - and my friend didn't stand up for me. That didn't do much for my opinion of my friend or her church. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted July 31, 2003 Actually I have visited the services of a faith different than mine and I disliked it very much, it was all I could do to keep myself from saying something I would have really regretted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see where that would be a problem. On the positive side I guess if you ever have members of other faiths visit your church you'll know how they're feeling.

Yillara Skye 1 Posted July 31, 2003 I have been to other churches for different reasons throughout my life. I am Lutheran, but have gone to Sunday School with friends at their churches; went to Christmas Mass a couple of times(my sister is Catholic, she converted before she got married); went to weddings and funerals of different religions. Lets see...I have been to a service of Catholic, Episcopalian, Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian. Never got to go to a Synagogue(sp?), yet(though many of my friends are Jewish)...but there is plenty of time to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, or, they will not exercise the restraint I showed and say something they would really regret. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
