Alan Burnham replied to Henrique O's discussion Atheism is linked to human dignity? in the group ORIGINS: UNIVERSE, LIFE, HUMANKIND, AND DARWIN

With local support groups throughout the US, Canada, UK, and Australia, and real-time resources accessible to everyone, RR is where to turn when faith has lost its luster.See More
