I couldn't possibly agree more!

I also find it strange that meditation and prayer are considered fundamentally different by many Christians. In fact, it says in the Psalms, "Be still and know that I am God". That could be taken directly out of a Hindu book on meditation.

I completely agree. I only wish that more Christians were able to understand that so that I wouldn't feel so isolated in the church as it is currently. It is hard to find others in the church that see the world similarly to how I see it, but I'm glad I found some people on this website that understand where I'm coming from. I'm glad I signed up.
