"The goal of the four-day conference is to create a spirituality-based platform to counter the religious right, "
Which is totally contrary to the Bibles teaching of 'inclusion' of all people.
You can't be against the 'relgious right' and be 'spiritual'.
What are these folks so afraid of? If they don't want to practice a certain religion, fine. But leave those of us who do practice alone. It's really very simple - to me, anyway.
