I did see your quotes, found a few friends there. 
On the one where Gandhi mentions he is a Christian (as well as other 
such):  I have often mentioned that I (Yama) find Gandhi's the best 
example of a Christian lifestyle in modern times.  (this is the first 
time I put this in writing, though, and now it will be on record in the 
internet.  I say that is good)
This is most disconcerting to many legalistic people affiliated with 
that doctrine.

BTW, if I had enough strenght of character I would rather be in an 
ashram environment.  I am looking forward to the opportunities that 
doing stuff in Bolivia will give me to go native, at least a bit.

an as total disclosure, I am an active member of a charismatic Christian 
church, have had strong bonds with traditional Catholicism (Franciscan 
Polish Conventual), find Zen gives many teachings I have a lot of use 
for.  I attempt to follow Christ, know I am too weak, selfish and coward 
to do a good job at it, but I keep trying.
