A Website journal and thoughts on Jesus and Spirituality in the 21st Century.
Friday, September 16, 2011 at 3:33PM I know quite a few people that have had a terrible experience with religion and aren’t eager to trust God or anything that smacks of religion ever again. If that describes you, your story may go something like this:
Tuesday, July 5, 2011 at 5:16PM I found yet another website dedicated to open source spirituality, called Open Source Religion. I would link to it, but I don’t want to encourage them. The site is another example of “open source” being made synonymous with apathy, which I don’t condone. Interestingly, or perhaps uninterestingly, most of the conversation I saw on the front page was rather savage, people calling each other stupid and demanding the recognition of their own viewpoints. The point I wanted to make is not that my site is the best by default of the others, but that I think that faith can be open source without being apathetic.

I’ll explain.

In the studies of sociologist Professor Bradley Wright, those reporting having been divorced were 38% and 60% respectively, giving a divorce rate half again as high for those who seem to be less serious about their faith.
Saturday, February 19, 2011 at 3:05PM It shouldn’t be surprising that I’m interested in any uses of the phrase “open source faith” considering that is the basic principle by which I operate OpenSourceFaith.net. Most uses of the term misunderstand the concept of open source and therefor fail to make the analogy meaningful. For what it’s worth, Mr. Schei uses the analogy correctly in my opinion, and does not claim, as one blog I’ve seen, that Hinduism is the open source faith, only that open source may be a good analogy to understand what Hinduism is all about.
