A place for thoughtful, honest discussions about difficult topics. Religion, politics, and everything else that is banned at Thanksgiving dinner is fair game here, but done with a sincere effort to find truth, with an empathetic and reasonable tone. Ideas will be tested, bad ones will be eviscerated, but the attacks will concentrate on just that, the ideas. Unless someone is obviously intending harm through their words, the people who hold bad ideas, and believe fallacial thoughts will be held blameless. Those knowingly teaching bad ideas will not. Please join the discussion and help the world become a better place... it is only through replacing false beliefs with true ones, and bad ideas with good ones that we can get humanity on track to reach our full potential. Together we can help each other grow and maximize the well-being all peoples. Together, if we follow evidence and sound reason, there is nothing that we cannot do.
