“Imagine the people who believe such things and who are not ashamed to ignore, totally, all the patient findings of thinking minds through all the centuries since the Bible was written. And it is these ignorant people, the most uneducated, the most unimaginative, the most unthinking among us, who would make themselves the guides and leaders of us all; who would force their feeble and childish beliefs on us; who would invade our schools and libraries and homes. I personally resent it bitterly.”

December- N. Pinellas Book Club
Hosted By Ellen

For December we will be reading and discussing Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl:

Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in N**i death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Based on his own experience and the stories of his patients, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. At the heart of his theory, known as logotherapy, is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure but the pursuit of what we find meaningful. Man's Search for Meaning has become one of the most influential books in America; it continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living.

My opinion: Here is more evidence of the corruption of public welfare by "religious freedom" (1st Amendment). It's time to treat religions as personal beliefs that are subservient to the public good. https://bityl.co/SXtA Treat religion as any other non-sacrosanct non-profit.
