Theo Nym on Nostr: I want to ask questions but my background has meant questioning and probing has ...
I want to ask questions but my background has meant questioning and probing has always been within the same tradition, or in a completely different context where the group doesn’t all agree. Not cross traditions.
As a Christian, I am fighting with the philosophical idea and practical application of wanting to adopt pieces of different traditions but not all of them. It feels disingenuous and I think it’s just a lack of knowledge on my part of the other traditions. There’s not really a historical precedent for masses finding a space in between traditions.
But … before schisms and creedal meetings, how did things go? Is that relevant?
I want to ask the things but don’t know how without it coming across as doubting vs curious.
