Talk:Real Good Religion
Not Addressed edit
The book Religion for Atheist describes the Feast of Fools, and has a chapter on perspective. Neither of these topics are yet covered in this course. Lbeaumont (discuss • contribs) 19:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Lessons from the Ancients edit
Consider adding a section on “Lessons from the Ancients” that acknowledges profound insights from ancient religions. This might include the Sermon on the Mount, the golden rule, and more. Perhaps the book Forgotten Truth: The Common Vision of the World's Religions, by Huston Smith would be helpful. Lbeaumont (discuss • contribs) 19:37, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Recent Pew Research Survey edit
Pew research recent completed a survey: Religious ‘Nones’ in America: Who They Are and What They Believe. Consider adding insights from that report to this resource. Lbeaumont (discuss • contribs) 13:16, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
Sacred texts edit
There is no mention of sacred texts in this real good religion. Are they unnecessary or does some sacred text need to be identified? Perhaps studying philosophy can fill this role. Lbeaumont (discuss • contribs) 11:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
Tell a better story edit
People are influenced by stories, not so much by reason. So to promote a real good religion we need to tell a better story. Perhaps this can be organized according to the hero’s journey. Today’s conflicts are the ordeal. We need to attain the epiphany and move on toward a bright future. Is my essay “toward compassion" a candidate for that story?
