| About Myself: | This I Believe… ¨ I believe all people have an equal claim to life, freedom, tolerance and justice – and no law, government, majority, religion, ideology or prejudice can ethically deny, even one individual, equal opportunity to enjoy them. ¨ I believe in the universal application of love, without regard for divisive ideologies that capitalize on differences in race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, gender, or sexual orientation. ¨ I believe in an uncompromising commitment to ethics, freedom, equity, equality, justice and tolerance for all. These values should mandate the character of our faith. Any faith, religion, scripture, church or institution, whose teachings or policies threaten the quality of other people’s lives, should be abandoned. ¨ I believe empathy is the most noble of all virtues. It is only by way of empathy with those suffering, disenfranchised or repressed that we can achieve equity in our treatment of others. ¨ I believe there is no higher authority than reason and critical thinking. To question is the answer. Spiritual growth cannot occur unless we continue the search for better answers from a variety of sources. Institutions using sophistry to nurture absolute dogmas only nurture intellectual arrogance, impeding spiritual growth. ¨ I believe demagogic and simplistic answers do not do adequately or equitably address complex problems. ¨ I believe in moral relativism. Absolute dogmas and inflexible rules fail to serve the interests of social justice. ¨ I believe there are only human solutions to human problems. If we cannot do it, it will not get done. Any reliance upon supernaturalism impedes human progress. ¨ I believe that a single well-substantiated fact, irreconcilable with a belief, is sufficient to prove that belief false. |
