Unfortunately, religious web sites often exhibit a very narrow focus:
- Many focus on the teachings of one religion or even on one faith group within a single religion, and present them as absolute truth.
- Many have as their purpose the promotion of the faith and beliefs of the webmaster or sponsoring agency -- often excluding and sometimes ignoring or distorting all opposing points of view.
- Many have as their goal the conversion of their visitors' beliefs to those of that faith group.
About this web site:
Our site is one of the very few exceptions. We don't care what your religion is. We only care about whether you are willing to be religiously tolerant -- that is to accept the right of other folks to freely and openly follow their own spiritual path even if it is very different from your own, and even if you feel it contains zero truth, as long as they do not harm or discriminate against others.
In this web site, we try to:
![]() |
Explain objectively all of the major religions of the world;
|
![]() |
Explain all points of view on controversial
religious and moral topics, like
equal rights for homosexuals, abortion access, transgender persons, spanking children, etc. |
![]() |
Promote religious tolerance: treating others fairly and with respect, no matter what their religion. |
About the webmaster:
The webmaster is very fortunate to have been able to convert his life-time interest in religion into a full-time pursuit at retirement.
He is a "NOTA" (A "None Of The Above"; one person in the rapidly growing minority in North America who is not affiliated with a specific religion). Unlike almost all other webmasters of religious web sites, he is not committed to promoting a single faith group. He believes that he has at least some level of objectivity when he studies the religious scene.
Important topics to study:
-
We recommend that you read the following three topics, and any others that you have time for:
-
Random religious thoughts by the webmaster: Important stuff that you will probably never hear in your church, mosque, synagogue, circle, etc.
-
2011: Basic questions that often underlay many conflicts. One can often find fundamental questions that underlay active conflicts, but which are often neglected. Yet it is often in these ignored questions that the possibility for consensus lies.
-
The root causes and resolutions of three major current religious/secular conflicts:
-
- Evaluating the reliability of religious web sites,
including this one
- An explanation of our web site's mandate and
organization for first time visitors
- Why religious tolerance is critical to
North America and the rest of the world
-
Current religious trends in North America
- An imbalance in believers' obligations. How religions can reduce intolerance
- Our financial needs -- why we would appreciate your help.
If you are still interested in exploring more of this website, we have a list of other really important essays -- at least we think that they are key articles. You may not agree.
