re: #82 goddamnedfrank

I’m arguing the literature and history of religious syncretism, not dogmatic adherence to one’s own idea of hat constitutes acceptable scripture. A agree that the that following the Exile the Hebrews were much more strictly monotheistic. How this makes a Sikh Christian woman who might still harbor Sikh beliefs less of a Christian is hard for me to grasp though. Let’s say she views the two Gods as identical, how is the concept of God in Sikhism incompatible with the idea of God in Christianity?

Because there is only One God, if Christianity is the path you choose. It is as clear and redundant as it is non-negotiable. Bickering about popes, saints, hymnals, etc…not the same at all.

The Judaistic and Christian concept of one God are very, very similar. See Marjorie’s post. It is the same for Christians.
