Buddhism

Anything written by Thich Nhat Hanh is great. Very comprehensible.

The Thirty-Seven Practices of the Boddhisattvas - oral teaching by Geshe Sonam Rinchen and translated & edited by Ruth Sonam. Great complementary text to the original oral teaching.

Zen Physics: The Science of Death; the Logic of Reincarnation
by David Darling is an amazing book. It's out of print, so may be a bit difficult to find. It's worth the search though.

[Ann-Marita]

The Religious Tolerance site, http://www.religioustolerance.org/ presents information from a wide range of religious beliefs.

Their site mandate is as follows:
"To promote religious tolerance and freedom. To objectively describe religious faiths in all their diversity. To objectively describe controversial topics from all points of view."

"This website is unlike almost all other religious sites:
It promotes religious freedom, and diversity as positive cultural values. "

A great resource for people of all faiths, this book explains concisely and exhaustively what "Christian" means:

Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis

Another good book is a summation of interviews by a Palestinian Arab who is a Professor of Philosophy at the American University in Beirut, Lebanon, Isa Ben Adam. The book is called A Refutation of Moral Relativism: Interviews with an Absolutist and the author's name is Peter Kreeft.

BTW, great thread!!

Mystical / Earthy / Druidic / Esoteric Christianity aka Christian Witchery (not my favorite term )

How to start / answer my question sites
http://members.aol.com/RawnaMoon/what.html ***site no longer active. You can find the pages of the site at the NorvicensianSeekers Yahoo group.

Rawana Moon's whole site is full of useful information on how to begin in the Norvicensian Tradition. This is a great site, with a year full of tasks to complete and think about, personal stories, and articles to peruse and think about. It was my personal jumping off site almost 4 years ago.

Christian Mystics - my current favorite site blending the two paths. I tend to have better luck reading books (Christian books, or pagan books, not too many that blend both!) but this one has tons of resources, and also another how-to-start-on-this-path page. A very tasteful, well put together page.

UU (Unitarian Universalist)

Unitarians celebrate the unity and interdependence of all existence. We pursue our individual search for truth and meaning in community with like-minded individuals.

Unitarians value both spiritual insight and rational enquiry. Some have words like God and Goddess in their vocabulary; others do not. We each explore our place in the universe in different ways - true to our own conscience and experience.

We are each charged with taking individual and collective responsibility for our lives and for our planet. Our sense of connection is demonstrated by our respect for the inherent worth and dignity of every person and our environment.

We are called to act with compassion, generosity and integrity in all human relations. You will find Unitarians at the forefront of social action – driven by our commitment to a fair, diverse and sustainable global community.

Our long-standing tradition evolves to remain relevant and vital.
