About Me

People of faith are at odds with each other all over the globe but, because I was raised in a home without any religion at all, I didn't have the vaguest idea what any of them were talking about. Yet their arguments affect me. They affect all of us. Deeply. In 2006, I decided I could not sit, ignorant, on the sidelines any more. So here’s what I’m doing: every religion trains newcomers in their faith. I am going through that training in the seven major religious traditions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, one by one. I am not looking for what doesn’t make sense to me but what does. My background? I'm a former 60 Minutes producer with two sons and a husband who aren't too sure about all of this. -- If you're new, start with "Okay, here goes..." in August 2006. Please keep in mind everything here is a work in progress and probably needs correction (from YOU if you see a problem!) And, as I started this blog almost two years after starting this project, there's a big gap, right now, in Buddhism, where I've yet to turn notes into posts. Keep an eye on that area - that's where the new posts will be.
