I tend to have my own take on things, religious and social. I do not judge others on their religious adherence but I always encourage where appropriate and I take kindly to encouragement in areas where I lack myself. I have a very modern view - I like technology. I am fiercely monotheistic. I believe in honor, fairness and equality. And I do not betray others. I don't have a narrow set of criteria for the types of friends or partners I would like. It's sufficient that they have a firm belief in their religion, a firm desire to better themselves, an open attitude of mutual and beneficial encouragement. That is, a willingness to except my flaws and encourage me to put them right (and vice versa). Ideally, they will be loyal and have a strong sense of honor and justice like myself. And if they are ambitious, I would encourage that ambition and would support them in their goals.
