New, Vital Concepts for a modern age -- More here.
Religion, Betrayal and Healing
Feeling betrayed or hurt, especially by forces said to be from Higher Power, can make it hard to live in wholeness, trust and love. I know its kept me from the full embrace of a loving, kindly Spirit. I felt spiritually abandoned, without community or a home for soul- support. So many feel this way, and that, in part, is the reason for this site-- to help us heal our souls that we may draw more closely to the Higher Spirit that is so needed for the healing of ourselves and our world. Here we can love ourselves as rebel- thinkers and also, perhaps, open to a growth beyond that place as well.
The spiritual rebel rightfully rejects mistaken and abusive dogmas to seek a bright new path. So now in part its the spark of the new revolution, breaking with hurtful faith organizations and the congregations. Attitudes in the chrches that reject or exclude other beautiful fatihs and also rejected in the spirit of unity and the oneness of the whole world. An unforseen consequence is that the faith's empowering bonding in spirit and community is lost, along with both helpful and hurtful traditions eschewed as a whole.

Evolving Faith
New, evolving paths* are growing,
as humane and just and healing as the old ways were unjust and restrictive.
Everything must change with time--
Many faiths* of our time are moving out of the old distorted ways reflecting man's abuses of religion. They have more acceptance of the unity of all the spiritual pathways, are more inclusive and have softened overbearing judgments of the past. Leadership styles are less ritualized, less divisive and destructive, and focus more on spirit and our own evolving spiritual capacity than on dogma.
The New Spiritual Evolution--
All faiths are meant to evolve with time and human growth, and this is part of the new teachings as well as gleaned from all the holy books of faith. Modern religious explanations see humanity as maturing, wiser now than in the past and moving into our "adolescence". The thinking, literate person is the growing norm today. We are called to "see with our own eyes", to release old superstitions, to accept science and investigate to find the truth for ourselves.
