WELCOME EVERYONE TO MY BLOGPOST!
This is my initial blogpost. I will post here some of my personal readings and reflections for friends to read and also listen to their feedbacks which I believe enhances a healthy interaction and exchange via the internet. From time to time, I will also include some significant excerpts from books written by some of my outstanding authors(Modern and Post-Modern) whose books include the following subjects: Religion and Ethics, General Science(Evolutionary Science), Politics, Economics, History, Sociology, Genetics, etc. I will also include posting the life and work of some of the leading Post-Christian religious thinkers like, Bishop John Shelby Spong, Jr., Marcus Borg, Karen Armstrong, Elaine Pagels, and all the other members of the internet group called, Center for Progressive Christianity, just to mention a few. Occasionally, I will also post some ideas of a few progressive religious thinkers from Christian fundamentalist/conservative groups and may also refer my readers to read some of their views and works.
In this blogpost, I will follow one simple dictum: Ideas, then and now, no matter how great they are, are never written on stones. With this, I mean I believe in Tradition, but more importantly, in the Traditioning process. I believe, finally, life is always in process of becoming. My hope is that some day all Christians, including other faith traditions, will finally see what Sam Mackintosh calls in his blogpost, "the convergence of science and religion."
