Getting to know other faiths

I’ve been following a few blogs that aren’t LDS that I absolutely adore. One in particular is saved-by-faith who is a Lutheran. When I first discovered her blog, I wrote a message explaining that although I was a Mormon, I found the blog terrific. That although we may be different denominations, we still have at least one thing in common: the love of Christ. She responded saying that there weren’t many Mormons where she lives so she knows very little about our faith. This made me realize just how little I know about other faiths as well.

I come here to suggest an idea: I want to co-run a blog with people of different religious backgrounds. There, we can answer questions from others and get to understand other religions better. I really enjoy this idea. Being LDS all my life, I have little knowledge of the believes of faiths and denominations such as Catholic, Lutheran, Jewish, Islam, etc. I really want to know not only the unique things about each religion, but also the things we have in common.

I really like this idea, and I want to know if people think it’s a good idea as well. I’m thinking there can be one or two representatives of each religion/denomination, and we can answer questions to get to know other faiths. If you’d like to help out or think this is a good idea, drop by my ask box. It would also be helpful if you could forward this idea along to people of other faiths. I’ll tag as many as I can think of, but I know I won’t get anywhere close. Your help is much appreciated! Thank you! Have a wonderful day!
