Just a thought... that perhaps in our differences we can find our commonality... even on a spiritual level.

1 John 3:18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.
I had forgotten about that verse, to quote it word for word... being raised in the Dunkard Brethren Church, I should have had this committed to memory...I remembered the concept, but not the words... I am recently reminded, in a good way, how much I have lived my life by those words, and how my life was shaped by it's teachings...
