Rational Theists should become acquainted.

There is not to my knowledge an organized group of theists, or Rational Theists, in the Greater Atlanta area. I would be glad to have interested persons contact me at kenbwear@att.net or 770-432-8654 to express an interest, add to our blog, or arrange a time when I can host one or a few individuals in my home for discussion or for a joint worship experience. I am conveniently located near Windy Hill and Austell Roads, Cobb County (near Smyrna but Marietta mailing address), just a few miles from the intersection of I-285 and I-75 north. Let's incorporate Rational Theism into our lives.

Initiating Blog

I have been persuaded by personal experiences of a concurrent realm in which spirits exist as identifiable individuals. This is outlined on the first page of my web entry Rational Theism and available at www.rationallink.org/theism.htm. That discussion continues to review a number of apparent characteristics of deity as well as teachings of the Christian church (Southern Baptist in the 40s and 50s) as I understood them.

What persuaded me is described in my odyssey (www.rationallink.org/odyssey.htm) . As a college student of physics I could no accept teachings that disagreed with what I could physically see, touch and count. After many years of trying to square Biblical scripture with scientific observations, I realized that many Biblical stories are allegorical in nature rather than descriptrions of physical events. While I love the organized church this led me toward independent thought, culminating in recognition of what I call Rational Theism.

I have established this blog hoping searchers and readers will use it as a means to establish contact with others of like mind. Due to the nature of blogs I must control what appears, so I will post e-mails sent to me, thus avoiding spam and other abuses of this site. You may e-mail me at kenwear@charter.net.

The best means of satisfying your personal need for a rational view of deity's involvement with man (religion) is to host 3-4 like-minded people to discuss your personal views of your lives and the world around you. You will find my notions of Rational Theism as an organized group at www.rationallink.org/ratth.htm. Should you wish to use them you will find a song list and worship aids at www.rationallink.org/ratth2.htm.

Please do send me information on your progress.
