Religion Isn’t About Believing Things. It's Ethical

Even Before 9/11 I Was Gripped By A Sense Of Dread: Our Lack Of Criticism About What We Were Doing In The Middle East - The Slagging Off Of A Whole Religious Tradition.

Religion Is A Practical Discipline And It's One That We Have Always Done, Ever Since Humanity Appeared On The Scene When Homo Sapiens Became Homo Sapiens. Sapiens Became A Human Being, Our Minds Very Naturally Segue Into Transcendence.

We Can't Say What God Is, And Until The Modern Period, Jewish, Christian, And Muslim Theologians In The Three God Religions All Knew That. They Insisted That We Have No Idea What We Meant When We Said That God Was Good, Or Wise, Or Intelligent.

Compassion Is Not An Option. It's The Key To Our Survival.

In The Past Some Of The Most Influential Jewish, Christian And Muslim Theologians, Such As Maimonides, Aquinas And Ibn Sina, Made It Clear That It Was Very Difficult To Speak About God, Because When We Confront The Ultimate, We Are At The End Of What Words Or Thoughts Can Do.
