I really do enjoy religious discussion. It is one of my few positive passions in life. Reading is an avid past time for me. Currently, I am have a wonderful time with Chesterton's Saint Thomas and Saint Francis, Erhman's Lost Christianities, Muhammad, a prophet for our time by Karen Armstrong, and Catholic Matters by Neuhaus. I never seem to be able to focus on a single book, but usually have several going at the same time. I don't sleep well and get carried away with reading.
I look forward to working with you. You might also look at the following articles Jesus, Early Christianity, and Christianity. They get a lot of "play", but are still enjoyable to edit. There are several very strong editors on those articles, but they are also some of the 125 or so articles I monitor.
My family was converted to the LDS church many years ago when I was but a child of seven. I do not enjoy contention within religious groups. Pope Benedict XVI may have been a bit strident in his younger days in "declaring" the truth. I find that we gain more by seeking the truth and living it. This is not to say that I feel evangelizing is improper, rather it is best applied to those who are searching and not in condemning the beliefs of others we hold in disdain or invalid. I have an abiding, deep respect for Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. As institutions they overflow with loving truths and can teach the world much of what it means to be Christian. As a Latter-day Saint, I believe that our voice brings much, if not invaluable, truths to the same world. I look forward to working with you and please forgive my babblings; I felt it might be helpful as we work together for you to get a better handle on me. Cheers.

I added back the POV tag because I think the version now has too little criticism. I'm going to look for some reliable sources to add back some criticism of this group because I think they have proven to be controversial and some criticism should be included, just not the hatchet job that existed before you edited the article.-- Isotope23 17:37, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I'm confused as to why you are deleting "God(s)and State" from Seperation of Church and State. You say it is a new term not used in the rest of the article, but i'm fairly certain the baptist section says "God and State" exactly.-- Danielfolsom 00:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
Oh ok, no I don't feel too strongly about it, I figured you were right, I was just wondering what you meant (trying to get used to editting) -- Danielfolsom 02:06, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vollan prison, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Transit camp. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
