In response to Buddhism vs Christianity posted by Brother_Jones:

I rule out in my own mind the possibility anyone can be a Buddhist Christian or Christian Buddhist, if they take seriously the claims of Christ or Buddha.
.
One doesn't have to try to be BOTH. The idea is to recognize that another faith might just contain some valuable insights which might be helpful to one's own particular faith.
.
Now, this might be a stretch for me (meaning it might be very unlikely), but suppose I was listening to a Conservative Republican, and I agreed with his proposed solution to a problem. Does this make me a Conservative Republican? Hardly. It simply means I'm willing to consider another point of view.
.
peace and love,
Paper Turtle
