Beauty in others

[pdamoc]

Statistically speaking some of us DO have a religion. We have either Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Wicca or some other beliefs.
How about this:
We state our beliefs and then describe something beautiful about the others.

I'll go first:
I'm a Christian and this post's beauty is about Muslims... I just love the words of Rumi, the way he speaks about his God leave me smiling. Here are some of his quotes:
"You were born with wings. Why prefer to crawl through life?"
"If you are irritated by every rub, how will you be polished?"
"Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment."
and the one that's filling my mind these days:
"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."

I am athiest and this posts beauty is about...

Anyone with religion. When someone truly believes in their chosen religion, the degree of fulfillment they get from their chosen beliefs is amazing to me. They know their purpose so definitely without needing physical proof. Faith like that is completely absent in me. LOL.

I am a Universalist, and I find beauty in the atheists.

When I look at atheists, I see people who ask themselves the deep questions, and don't have dogma to fall back on. Atheists have forced themselves to take responsibility for their situations, rather than blame or praise a higher power. To me, atheists represent independence.

And yes, I do realize that my wife is an atheist. If you notice her post above, she compliments me, just as I compliment her.
