Do you know what Zoroastrianism is? Or what about Jainism? Or what about the true definition of what Rastafarians believe?
Always seek to know and understand other people's faiths and ideas; one of the deepest signs of true respect you can show another person is to demonstrate an honest desire to understand them (without judgment).
Check out a great BBC resource to find out more about other faiths:

So Megan, I actually checked out this site, and I've got to say, it was pretty interesting. I read a lot on Mormons, Rastafarians, and Jehovah's Witnesses, some of the stuff was quite an eye opener.
Yeah, I always love learning about how others approach faith/God, etc. What's important to keep in mind with researching other faiths is that there's always going to be differences of how individuals practice within the faith. Two Mormons may believe or approach an idea in two different ways. Just like it's sometimes hard to find two Episcopalians who believe the same thing on everything, but we can all come together to worship under the banner of a common theology. (And even that can be a challenge sometimes!)
