Main essays & sections on this web site:

Overview:As of late-2018, this web site is approaching its 24nd anniversary. When the site first went online, the Internet was in its infancy. Our original intent was to write perhaps 80 essays on different world religions. Now, the site contains about 8,000 essays and menus. During 2016, it received on the order of 12 million visitors a year, mainly from the U.S., UK, Canada and India.
We continue to add a new essay, or rewrite an existing essay, once a day. We recommend the following essays and sections on our web site as being among the most important. Many deal with topics that are not covered in schools, churches, the media
or religious education courses. Many are covered elsewhere in the Internet,
but are mixed in with heaps of misinformation and disinformation. This web site is one of the few locations on the Internet where you can see
all viewpoints on each topic. Most religious web sites only promote the belief
system of the webmaster(s) or the site sponsor. We are a multi-faith group thus try to describe all beliefs fairly and accurately.
