Religion is an amazingly broad and complex topic. As one of the two traditionally taboo topics to discuss in mixed company (politics), it is also incredibly personal and potentially divisive. It gains its potential for being divisive partially because this very personal topic has played a significant role in geopolitics, social policies, class and race divisions, domestic politics, and, for many, one's "eternal situation."
My goal for All Things God is to provide a forum where well-intentioned people can openly examine history, current events, and any other religious or secular topics through the lens of religion. I suppose the ultimate goal would be to shed light on the fundamental questions that help understand the "origin and purpose of our existence." I expect that the forum will evolve to some extent over time, but I do hope that the spirit of open-mindedness and honest dialogue remain prominent.
With that said, let the discussion begin.....
