Quote of the Day, 12/30/2010

This one's a little different today. It's not from a famous author, philosopher, historian or poet. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm constantly delving into what it means to be a person of faith, and how most faiths share some fundamental tenets. So I think this is one of the truest statements I've ever read, and even though it's taken out of context, it's nonetheless true and universally applicable to all faiths, all nationalities, and all orientations (in my mind, anyway).

Anything that does not promote love is not of God. Instead of arguing, let us love one another, even those with whom we disagree. This is God's message to us. Nothing else matters.
-Rev. Candace Chellew-Hodge
