In “Thinking Out Loud” sessions I’ll share my own views. In this first one my main goal is to provide information about my evolving views toward religion and my intentions for starting this show. The purpose of this podcast is, in part, to excavate the many valuable aspects of wisdom traditions from the dogma of organized religion. But in order to honestly promote this benefits of religion we have to be candid about the serious problems that religious beliefs are presenting to free societies, from terrorism to impeding scientific progress to attacks on basic human rights of individuals.
In having honest conversations about the positive and negative aspects of religion I hope to find common ground between those who find themselves on different sides of the fence. In a world that’s increasingly divided--in which we choose to curate content online that conforms only to our points of view and to ignore dissenting opinions--I think it’s essential to find some common ground.
