This idea has been rolling around in our heads for quite sometime, and we are finally acting on it. For too long our species has been plagued by the hateful ideology that there is a right way to live and a wrong way to live. This type of blind generalization is not only a tremendous leap in logic, but it is downright socially irresponsible. Regardless of what you believe, religiously, politically, or otherwise; "different," or "counter culture," people will always exist, thus, we must find a way for the less tolerant to co-exist peacefully....or change their minds.
We are fans of the latter; this project operates under the idea that most of the anger, fear, or hatred that ends up being directed at counter culture groups is due largely in part to the avid distribution of misinformation. While it is impossible to talk about this without involving discussion of the church, religion is not solely to blame here; we all are.
This project and ones like it are our chance to make a difference, to undo the damage that has already been done. It is time for us to prove our humanity by learning about one another instead of assuming. It is time for us to begin aiding one another instead of fighting one another. It is time for people to care about other people.
It is important to note that we do not subscribe to any particular political ideology or party either. The ideologies purported on this page will line up with the tenants of Humanism, and one of our members is a professing Humanist. However, this should not suggest that this project is for Humanists exclusively.
That being said, this blog will become increasingly active over the next few weeks. We will be adding pictures from our previous events and updates about what we have in the works....keep your eyes open.
