What we’re about
There is something unique about the Bible.
This group is for people who want to explore the Bible without the chains of Christian dogma; to explore the truth of the Bible on its own merits; to challenge Christian dogma and the fallacy of 'sound doctrine'.
While this group does not endorse or promote Christianity, it is not anti-Christian.
This group is NOT for people who want to promote a particular ‘religious’ dogma, whether Atheist, Judeo-Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu etc.
TRUTH SEEKING.
The Truth-Seeker’s primary question:
How can I validate that?
Truth Seekers are curious, always exploring, always expanding their knowledge and understanding.
Truth Seekers are humble enough to admit that they don’t know everything.
Above all, Truth Seekers respect every person's freedom to form their own opinions.
DIALOGUE.
These dialogues are loosely based on a dialogue-model developed by David Bohm; dialogue, not debate or dispute.
Dialogue, as practiced in this Meetup group, is "a free-flowing group conversation in which participants seek to experience everyone's point of view fully, equally and non-judgmentally".
Dialogue is about seeking a new and deeper understanding, not necessarily agreement.
If we participate in good faith, we will leave a Dialogue a little wiser for having listened openly to each other.
The video gives a short introduction to the Dialogue model.
