5. Are you talking about the flying spaghetti monster, TG?
I'm probably being obtuse, but I don't catch the reference. Maybe the OP was being tongue-in-cheek, but I wasn't. I do sincerely believe that genuine liberal philosophy is rooted in realistic, shared human values that we ignore at the peril of the whole "congregation". SG

8. oh, dear, now I'm embarrassed!
I thought the Church of Reality was the FSM church.

So I was joking.

But in re-reading, I like your take on it, as I do on most things!

7. Yeah, but do they have Bingo night?
I have to check these important things out before I change my allegiance and abandon my crazy friends over at the 'Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence Bingo Night' (thanks NancyG for that nugget - stay dry and safe)

14. Fascinating site.
I think I was there for well over an hour. I found myself nodding in agreement over and over again. Your basic philosophy is what I've believed and tried to live for a long time. I've just never given it a name. It was a pleasure to find some like-minded folks.
