Namaste, You cannot be ecumenical and have a religion at the same time it is an oxymoron. The monotheistic religions are totalitarian and violent in many ways. When given a chance people dump them in the end. In Egypt Akhenaten came up with a monotheistic religion,Aten, instead of Amen and the other Gods/Devas... Eventually he was run out of town into the Sinai by the people of Egypt...he or his direct assistant was probably Moses. The strange thing is that the deva Amen is mentioned at the end of all Abrahamic religious prayers.....Tony. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
