Culture and Religion

Observations about society, including culture and religion, and about life. With our inherent social nature, group behaviors are important, such as divide and conquer, absolute power, or conformance, in the critical issues of our day. A team with diverse skills can accomplish what an individual cannot. Our problems are solved when we work together.

Links to articles about religion in politics

I often check the internet for the latest news and general information. A number of web sites warrant a daily visit, like antiwar.com and counterpunch.org. Both of these sites offer archives of previous commentaries by their contributors.

The following are several notable sites that address the intrusion of religion into our political process. Our Founding Fathers tried to prevent the intrusion of religion into government but lately those in power have forgotten or have ignored that principle. These sites are really in no particular order, even within groups. Each author provides his/her own perspective and each article offers that insight. Which insight might seem more important to me is very subjective. Perhaps these articles will be of interest to the reader.
