I am not an Orthodox Christian — but today, which is Christmas on MY calendar — the JULIAN calendar — let us for a moment forget division and let us remember what is most important.
I used to be a proud card-carrying atheist. These days I believe there is a spiritual dimension shared by all of good heart—and that the unity of the spirit is the message of all the great religions. It is what makes us human.
As we celebrate the message of Jesus, let us remember the need of so many all around the world, especially in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. Their god may be different from yours - but say a prayer. Especially for the children for it is their innocence that is the kingdom of heaven.
Peace and good will to all.
Best wishes and love
Julian
To you also Julian, Amen.
Hopeful wishes of peace and joy to all beings of good will. Thank you Julian.
