People who over-identify with one group or tribe for ideological reasons invariably meet with disappointment because there will always be some tenets they internally oppose and disagree with. Yet they ignore their inner voice in order to "fit in with the rest".

The passion of my mission had its roots in my youth when I rejected the dogma and doctrine of organized religion. I drifited in and out of several Christian denominations, always seeking answers to questions which religious people could not answer to my satisfaction. My joy and enthusiasm for life and learning have been sharply curtailed by the sobering reality that we live in a troubled world from which I cannot escape. I frequently think of the many children who go to sleep hungry every night, many of them wet and cold.
