Text Ticker: Trying on religions

Over at OnFaith, Sally Quinn invites readers to

Try a new faith (or non-faith) for one day. That exploration can include attending a different place of worship or an event hosted by another faith tradition, discussing faith with someone whose views differ from your own, or inviting someone of a different faith to experience yours.

There's even advanced technology involved.

Starting in a week or two, we'll feature all published submissions in a TimeSpace map, which uses cutting-edge technology from washingtonpost.com to arrange users' essays on a searchable, chronological map.

Predictably, GetReligion is cynical.

Asking questions about another person’s spiritual experience for one whole day? Such boldness!

I would prefer to encourage people to bow in humility at the distance that lies between each others' experiences [go!]
