Didn't Matthew Parris in the Times say that what Africa needed was more Christian missionaries?
Rowan Williams, Sentanamu and Ratzinger are wlcome to go there, and I hope they end up in cooking pots.
RE: "and I hope they end up in cooking pots."
Is there no moderation on this board?
For me each to his own, I have no faith system but one does get bored with the playground sniping to the already converted groups of righteousness. This was posted on "RichardDawkins.net Forum" and after the initial yawn, 24 hours later my view has changed. What do you think ?
What would you add to the open source belief system of Darwins Church as a mission statement / creed ?
It seems to me that famous quote by Voltaire "If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him" is still true but we have evolved to the time when Darwins Church with an existing infinite life membership of all from amoeba to primate, religious order to atheist group, all faiths and philosophers accept the origin of species as the natural theology. It is possible that through Darwins Church atheist's can always work through reason and ambiguity rather than in isolation / antipathy
Your comments please

Well after looking @ the definitions expecting to knock the concept. I think you have something here, a faith for reason.
Church

Congregation
