more detail, please.[/quote]

Volunteer at a soup kitchen, hospice, or prison.[/quote]

can only Christians do those things?[/quote]

Of course not! He was a Jew which is a religion with a great tradition of charity & good deeds. And helping others is hardly limited to Christianity. It is, however, an excellent way to immerse oneself in the "new commandment" to love one another. It is my experience that when one is struggling with faith and he or she sets aside study of the gospels and engages in ministry to others, faith comes naturally.[/quote]

The commandment to love one another is not 'new' and did not start with Jesus.  As has been stated previously in this thread, Jesus was a Jew in a Jewish religious milieu.  Do you think he invented the notion of loving one another?[/quote]

Who else defined love as laying down your life for your friend?[/quote]

I don't think I would agree that Christianity teaches us that love means to commit suicide for others.
