Religion

I'm not trying to corner the market on links to religious resources (I'll let Yahoo do that), but this is more of a list of links to places that I have come across. They may be of interest to me because I agree with them, they may be of interest to me because I disagree with them, I may just have a link because the religion is one to which I have been exposed. For the record, you'll probably find that most of the links here are for Christianity because I am a Christian.

Do not consider a link on this page to be any kind of endorsement on my part for the content of that site. These are simply resources. Surf these links at your own risk.
