Welcome To We live in a complicated world, and sometimes it seems we are beset by insurmountable problems. We worry about making ends meet, finding or keeping a good job in an uncertain economy, getting along with family and friends, battling illness, dealing with the effects of stress, handling a divorce, paying off debts. We worry about pollution and global warming and world peace. Sometimes it seems as if our problems are overwhelming. Some people try to escape their problems by fleeing into workaholism, alcohol or drugs, or exercising too much. Some try to elevate their mood with Prozac or other prescriptions. Some try meditation or self-help books. Some seek help from psychological or medical practitioners.

Extractions: Revelation: what use i s it? There are many people who after years of ceaseless efforts, sacrifice and suffering find no change in their state of consciousness, and in the essential aspects of their personality continue to be the same as they were before. In their despair they either blame the teacher or the whole system which they followed or even question the justice of the divine Being toward whom all their devotion, sacrifice, and effort were directed. Is it not an anomaly that while, in the intellectual sphere, out of millions who devote their lives to the various sciences and arts and make colossal sacrifices to win distinction in them, only an extremely few rise to the stature of a Shakespeare, a Kalidasa, an Omar Khayam or a Confucious? The rest reasonably attribute the rise to exceptional talent, based on some still unknown biological law. In the spiritual realm the seekers after God do not often take the same reasonable view and, instead of attributing their failure to a law of nature, assign other causes for it.

Aslan's Kin: Interfaith Fantasy And Science Fiction Passages from authors discussing the connection between religion, fantasy, and science fiction. Includes links to sites on Christian, Humanist, Jewish, Pagan, and other religious speculative fiction. http://www.greenbelt.com/news/aslan
Extractions: Interfaith Fantasy and Science Fiction Web sites exist that are dedicated to Christian fantasy, Humanist speculative fiction, Jewish science fiction, Pagan mythology in modern novels, and other such topics, but this site is intended to explore the spiritual fantasy and science fiction of all faiths. Many of the authors listed here were interested in spiritual belief systems other than their own, so it does them no disservice to place them in a multifaith setting. Most of this site consists of passages from authors who have written about the connection between spirituality and fantasy or the connection between spirituality and science fiction. The final page of the site consists of links to sites on these themes and on individual authors who have written spiritual fantasy and science fiction. The contents of this site are free. However, if you enjoy this site and would like to donate a dollar or two (in whatever currency you use), you may want to visit my donations page. G. K. Chesterton

Religious Fundamentalism Response to a fundamentalist trying to convert me to Islam and save me from eternal damnation. Addresses questions of many religiously oriented people concerning religious truth, and science versus religion. http://rwendell.blogspot.com/
Extractions: Response to a Muslim fundamentalist trying to convert me to Islam to save me from eternal damnation. Addresses doubts and questions many religiously oriented people have about the nature of religious truth and about science versus religion. I recently received a long epistle at my work email address from a fundamentalist Muslim trying to correct misperceptions of them as all terrorists, etc., but also trying to tell me I was eternally doomed if I did not convert to Islam. It was likely a total waste of time in terms of any effect on him, but it was valuable for me to write the response below, since it challenged and crystallized my thinking and means of expression. It also addresses pressing questions I've received from some of those who have trouble rationalizing their religious needs and understandings in this modern world. I have since edited the letter and added further appropriate thoughts as they have occurred to me. I dont like this use of the word fundamentalist, which, in my opinion, should mean those who base their views on fundamental principles, which is a good thing. However, it has now come to apply to those who take even the most superficial, and anything but fundamental, aspects of their faith as literal and absolute. Because this meaning has become the standard interpretation of the term, I will nevertheless respect this modern usage.

Lewis BOSTON - Clive Staples Lewis, an atheist until a mystical experience at age 31, is this century's best-selling author of Christian books. What is the secret to his vast appeal? "He was an extremely talented writer," says Marjorie Mead, a Lewis scholar and associate director of the Marion E. Wade Center in Wheaton, Ill. "He helped people think through their convictions. He combined the imagination and rational side. He had the ability to reason and depict. That's a very unusual combination."
Carl Sagan's Religion Of Science Essay by Scott Detwiler on the religious implications of Sagan's scientific world view as expressed in his writings. http://www.detwiler.us/sagan.html
Extractions: by Scott Detwiler "The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be." (7, p. 4) This provocative statement of the nature of reality opens Cosmos, the magnum opus of Carl Sagan, America's most visible scientist. In the highest-rated public television series and a best-selling book, Sagan sought to turn the public on to science by "the communication of science in an engaging and accessible way." (7, p. xiv) The result of his efforts is that when Americans think of science, they think of Sagan. However, Sagan concerns himself with more than pure science. " I want [science] to be seen as a human endeavor " (1, p. 37) With this intention, Sagan uses his position and ability to communicate to expound on many subjects not quite so scientific: Because science is inseparable from the rest of human endeavor, it cannot be discussed without making contact, sometimes head on, with a number of social, political, religious and philosophical issues. (7, p. xiv) While this is quite true of science, this approach to relating science has led to Sagan's formulation of a unique synthesis of science and philosophy. The difficulty is that the public tends to consider Sagan's words scientifically valid whether they be fact or opinion. Sagan has arrived at a particularly interesting view of science's traditional companion, religion. He reinterprets the meaning and role of religion from the viewpoint of science. One would think that Sagan would prefer to tear down religion as an obsolete social construct; on the contrary, Sagan respects religion for its roles both past and present in our society. He explicitly states that his discussions are intended as "constructive" criticism for the refinement of the institution to twentieth-century standards. (3, p. xiv)
