Reply #19: I made a similar spiritual journey and arrived at an understanding

that there are many paths to God, only some of which are Christian. All people have a tremendouse amount of good in them and want to do better. They look for the goodness in themselves that is a reflection of the greater Good, for in it is we find peace, acceptance, and understanding. So today, when I see someone participating in a ritual that has meaning for them, I know they are also seeking the same thing. It is unfortunate that some of these paths have become corrupted, but that should not stop us from seeking. Nor does it permit us to force our path into someone else's way.
