http://www.tikkun.org/community/spiritual_activism_conference

Some Fabulous Presenters--But the Real Action will be YOU and others who help us shape the thinking for a Network of Spiritual Progressives
You do not have to believe in God or be part of a religious or spiritual community to help us create a Network of Spiritual Progressives

1. Recommended for those recently excommunicated...
I'll pass as I was excommunicated over 300 years ago.

I'm used to it... Now, I don't believe in organized religion.

2. I'm not sure I do either--but this is probably as close as I can get.

I'm hoping those who were excommunicated/fear excommunication
will do something progressive instead of hanging where they're
not wanted.
