[close] For 49 years I've read mostly white folks opine on bible, theology, etc. Today I begin a new era - 49 years (let's hope!) with the writings of people of color. Join the group, and we'll share what we're reading.

[close] Discussion of strategically selected books by Greater Diversity News that address issues and provide solutions to underserved communities in the United States. Selected books are selected in part for clarity of issues produced by racism in their historical context. Parents, guardians and their youth are encouraged to participate together and discuss afterward in their homes.

[close] Group for discussion about Secular Humanism. Generally for those who either are Secular Humanists, or those who want to know about it. Support for info & books about Secular Humanism. Not for religious people to slam or otherwise put down. Non-religious (secular) morals & ethics derive from conscience and observation of the world in terms of reality ("let your conscience be your guide"). Ethics are preferred to synthesized morals and are practical, and work realistically. Science confirms reality and the real world around us and helps better explain and define it. "Secular" denotes "without and free of religion" as the U.S. government is supposed to be (see Separation Of Church And State). "Humanist" denotes being human, a member of humanity, and support of and by fellow human beings; i.e. social cooperation of and by equals. Also, being free of bias, prejudice and racism; but being a rational, reasoning, and objective person.
