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?
I'm an atheist, but if I was able to have a ration conversation with someone of another religion I'd be very interested! I've tried this with my friends before who believe in a God, and we both had good intentions to start out with, but it the end it didn't make us closer or help us see eachother points of views.
