Good Afternoon, Friends! I am looking for more members for the Blog - and am hoping you might pass this link below onto anyone who might be a good fit for us - you know, someone who wants to Dialogue, and who has opinions they would like to share about religion/spirituality, other types of worldviews and cultural perspectives relevant to this Dialogue...As founding members who have continued on to this point let me say THANK YOU and that I trust that our circle will grow, albeit slowly...Be sure to point out to perspective members the survey button at the bottom of the blog-page...Pax! https://sites.google.com/site/4chandre/thegreatdialogue

I guess there aren't too many places on earth where the church and the state are ruled from the same office. Iran, perhaps.
It marks a triumph for the reformation/enlightenment idea that faith is a personal practice, but statehood is a societal one. Societal life and order, in this view, may be informed by religious ideals are not subjugated to religious doctrine. How we do this rightly is the subject of ongoing discussion.
