They held destiny in their hands, they believed in perfectability as something that could be derived from within!SandyCarlsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10752798823532580733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1305469033894977351.post-23023981681871265922008-09-17T10:52:00.000-04:002008-09-17T10:52:00.000-04:00YES!

My husband is Jewish but was "co-raised" in the Ethical Society. His father sang in the local Presbyterian choir so they could have a tenor. I've always celebrated Christian holidays, but with creative irreverence. I just found out this year that Israel is a secular culture. I always assumed they were a religious people.bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09610803859346252725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1305469033894977351.post-57328141536704850872008-09-17T00:43:00.000-04:002008-09-17T00:43:00.000-04:00I choose to co-exist not because I am a perfect pe...I choose to co-exist not because I am a perfect person with perfect values, but because my God has commanded that I love Him first and second to love my neighbor as myself. That is my definition of co exist.Moohaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12783775723399171570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1305469033894977351.post-82084874373219454022008-09-16T22:16:00.000-04:002008-09-16T22:16:00.000-04:00Thank you for this.
