Also would like to discuss the differances between Eastern & Western cultures,religions,and philosophies. I would also be interested in hearing from people who can suggest relevant reading materials on these subjects. My knowledge of this area of the world is limited; I would like to increase it. This is of interest to me and I'd like to hear from you about this topic. I believe that with 5000+ yrs. of history and cultural/scientific development behind them, the Asian cultures have NUMEROUS contributions to make to Western society. Send comments,suggestions,& information to me at IHNP4!IHUXJ!AMRA, or POST them to the following newsgroups,(net.politics;net.religion; or net.philosophy). Hope to hear from you in the near future. PEACE & BEST WISHED From the ever curious mind of: Steve Aldrich (ihnp4!ihuxj!amra)
