LRAC should be more inclusive

May 17, 2018

Thank you Rev. Diane Fisher for suggesting that the LRAC become an interfaith organization by welcoming Jewish, Unitarian and Unity congregations.

I was sad to see that the 23 members voted no. And you call yourselves Christians? I suggest you go to your congregations and poll them as to which way they would have voted. After all, you are servants to your congregations.

Congratulations to the 14 who voted yes! Every religion, from the Prophet Abraham to Baha'u'llah, believes in only one God; therefore all religions have come from the same source. Here is the Golden Rule thread that runs through all the religions and Native American and all indigenous sources:

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." You can look up each to find their exact words. Maybe LRAC should disband and form a more inclusive organization of which I would be proud to be a member.

My last comment is thought provoking to those 23. If you really knew Jesus, you would know all the prophets.
