In reply to the discussion: Mass Shooting at Sikh Temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin [View all]Don C. Nuttin
(84 posts)Two weeks ago today, my wife and I had lunch at the home of a Sikh friend and her children. I asked her if the Sikh god was the god of Islam. She said it was not. I told her that I asked because the god of Abraham (the god of the Jews) is the Christian god and is the Muslim god. She said she knew that. I told her I am Christian, and that I personally believe my god hears all prayers. She said she believes her god hears all prayers. But she added that she does not believe that Muslims in general believe that their god hears the prayers of non-Muslims. I told her that I was under that impression, too.
I left her home thinking that she and I do worship the same god, but that we each ernestly believe in different stories of god.
Today the Sikhs are in my prayers.
