About this Site

….

This site is about reason, something that the America of today is losing in the radical unreason of the lies mixed with tiny bits of truth inherent in the soundbytes of AM conservative talk radio, in right wing blogs that exploit the collective fear birthed in 9/11, who twist religion to fuel their own quest for power and control, while maligning other faiths that do not line up to their vision of Christianity. The Republican Party of the 21st century has hearkened back to a past of intolerance in its quest for absolute power and thus, is not the same party it once was. It is because of our high regard for the religious traditions of the world as well as the highest respect for the American Enlightenment tradition in our political history that this blog is about openly questioning how religion is used in politics, giving a voice to the moderate religious voices of this country which up to now have been largely ignored even though the moderates make up the largest segment of the American voting population.

….

This work, indeed the passion behind this blog is the search for truth, the defense of freedom of speech, and the implementation of reason on unreasonable words and actions, in order to promote understanding, and from understanding peace. We welcome you on this patriotic journey and welcome your articles and comments.

Going beyond politics, religion may have had a profound impact on your personal life, for good or for ill. By sharing your experience, you may be helping someone who is going through similar experiences. Perhaps your grew up in a cult, maybe your family’s estate was destroyed because the assets went to a church, or maybe you found peace and life purpose through your religion or your sense of spirituality. A growing number of Americans today no longer are affiliated with any particular religion. As a source of information for seekers who do not want to go to church, we’d love to share your story here
