My view on this is WHY NOT!?!? It's not wrong to learn about other faiths and connect with others who are of a different faith then you. Knowledge is power and leads to wisdom. And these type of discussions are great for getting rid of stereotypes too.
Thoughts?
Yeah, I would. Just because I'm Christian doesn't mean I'm better than anybody and I can't talk to anyone. It's stupid to just be like, "Oh, yeah, I'm so much better because I have different religious views and I can't be in the presence of such morons." I don't know about you, but that goes against the whole being Christlike thing us Christians strive to be. :P
