It seems to me that many religious views are deeply problematic and incoherent and do not contribute to the common good yet, in our present public culture the critical element is often lacking - hidden as it is behind a mistaken understanding of in what consists a genuine form of toleration and openness.Andrew James Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693417061963197121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144051388547159240.post-47224835945120647152009-04-04T09:00:00.000+01:002009-04-04T09:00:00.000+01:00Yes it is the turf maze.

(i have a blog, peculiarqueer.wordpress.com , in which i do some kvetching about my experience with uu, but it's more about how quakerism works for me and not how uu didn't.) also, i came out as a transgender guy with the name, cubbie-- not jasmine anymore. anyway, i just wanted to say hello. i've just started to read your blog, and am really thrilled to read some more. hurray!cubbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01967417546891684102noreply@blogger.com
