Please re-read what I said. I said that right and wrong don't matter to an extent. What I men by that is that what is considered to be right and wrong is, at times, influenced by culture, age, outlook, and a whole host of other factors. Different era's have considered things right and wrong, and held vastly diffferent opinions about the same subjects. (that goes for Christianity also, it has considered different actions and behaviors differently has time has gone on) Even the bible has been interpreted differently as time has gone on.

Right and wrong can have different meanings in different contexts.

The search for truth is something else. It is a search and is based on intention. Again, I said, in a general sense, the search for truth is just as important. And it is, in a general sense. For many, that search in a general sense will begin and end at Christianity. Weather that is right or wrong, is not for me to say. For others the search will go beyond that. Again I can not say if that is right or wrong. I can only speak for myself, and my need to follow a different path.

I think that searching is very important, because it is the first step in a path, in any path for that matter. weather that path ends in Church, a Mosque, a Temple, an Indian Sweat Lodge, or somewhere else, it has to begin somewhere. and that desire to search for truth is the first step.
that is why I think in a sense it is just as important.

Remeber Dan, If it can't be questioned, if it cn't be examined from all angles, what good is it?
