Is this teaching applicable and compatible with Orthodoxy? I have talked to a fomer TAWer (still Orthodox) that says this. They say that even nuns they have talked to agree, etc.
Is this true?
Is this true?
because I know that Orthodoxy teaches that all religions have some Truth in it, and perhaps this is where she and I are getting mixed up in our understanding?
Namaste - I bow to God within you. Since Christ lives in Christians, I figured it'd be OK. If not, I'll stop. Not a big deal.

Yes, it's true. All paths lead to God. All paths. Every path. Straight paths. Crooked paths. Hilly paths. Bumpy paths. Paved paths. Unpaved paths. Asphalt-covered paths. Cobblestone paths. Moving sidewalks. Escalators. Elevators. Foot trails. Horse trails. Covered wagon trails.
They all lead to God.
All vehicles lead to God. Cars. Trucks. Planes. Trains. Subways. Submarines. Boats. Ships. Gliders. Skateboards. Roller Skates. Inline Skates. Motorcycles. Vespas.
And, speaking of Subways, all sandwiches lead to God, too. Subways. Quiznos. BLTs. Hot Dogs. Hamburgers. Grilled Cheese. Philly Cheese Steak (especially Philly Cheese Steak!). Gardenburgers. Poor Boys. Muffulettas. Open-faced. You name it, you eat it, it leads to God.
There. Does that answer your question?

It might be too late for him. I am seriously fed up with his silliness and have begun to wonder if this is all not a game to him. Thus I feel the need from here on out to completely wash my hands of him and his silliness and let him tread whatever path he wishes to take. Maybe he just needs to learn the hard way.You have stepped into seriously deep water my young friend.
Better take a very close look at the depth.
Wow. I really apologize for any offense. I figured it'd be theologically correct, with Christ living within and all. Then again, I've never claimed to be a theologian.
And the "no Big deal" was in reference to be not saying Namaste to greet with anymore.
