Everyone does it, has done it, and anyone who's read history should know this. So, I personally think, instead of pointing fingers at the "wrong" other religions/ people are doing, why not start with ourselves first. Is this a good idea?

Dear Gypsy,
I know I am not Kutenurse, but I think that we should certainly start with ourselves first, as you suggest above! As a Panthiest, I try hard to practice tolerance regarding all religions.... but it is not always easy!!
