I prefer an approach to spirituality that is based in both gnosis and high-level critical thinking and analogue insight—not fear-based superstition. You’ll find all that in Book 2 of THE GRAND ILLUSION (and some snippets on my Subst@ck).

Conference On Religious Trauma

Welcome to the Conference on Religious Trauma (CORT). CORT is an annual conference held online to raise awareness about Religious Trauma Syndrome. CORT goals include: - Educating about religious trauma syndrome (RTS) - Providing resources to aid in recovery from religious trauma - Connecting survivors of RTS with qualified therapists, coaches, and consultants. CORT speakers represent a variety of fundamentalist religious backgrounds, including Amish, Evangelical, Mormon, Muslim, and Hasidic Orthodox Judaism. They will be covering a vast array of topics from cultural genocide to coercive control, fear of Hell to post-religious sexuality, and religious schooling to racism. In addition to presentations by psychologists, social workers, authors, and former clergy, survivors of religious fundamentalism are eager to share their own personal stories of trauma, recovery, and hope with you.
