Religious and Philosophic Reflections

Religious and Philosophic Reflections

"The problem of restoring integration and cooperation between man’s beliefs about the world in which lives and the values and purposes that should direct his conduct is the deepest problem of modern life. It is the problem of any philosophy that is not isolated from that life." John Dewey

That about sums up the goal which undergirds the religious and philosophic writings found on this page.
