WASH Maryland / DC April Meeting
Margaret Johnston: Beyond Belief: Stories of Good People Who Left Their Church BehindMany can see how moving away from traditional religion can represent personal growth. But could faith development theorists be right in saying it also represents spiritual growth? And is agnosticism/atheism the “right” answer? As counterintuitive as it is reassuring, spiritual development theory offers an overarching explanation for the vehement conflicts between believers and non-believers. But it also brings news that the most “spiritually mature” among us have transcended their need for answers into a worldview where everyone's beliefs are “right.”
