Speaking of religion

Thanks to Ed M.

At a memorial service yesterday the officiant quoted an active politician speaking about his view of religion. He chose not to mention the person or their political affiliation so the ideas expressed could be considered:

“Before you speak to me about your religion, first show it to me in how you treat other people; before you tell me how much you love your God, show me in how much you love all His children; before you preach to me of your passion for your faith, teach me about it through your compassion for your neighbors. In the end, I’m not as interested in what you have to tell or sell as I am in how you choose to live and give.”
