Religious Writing - Apparently, I've Got It All Wrong

Charter For Compassion

One of this year's 3 TED wish-winners is Karen Armstrong, a renowned and prolific writer on the topic of [for the most part] monotheistic faiths, i.e. the Abrahamic religions, aka Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.  She is a scholar, she is a person of faith, and her empathy and compassion for all, regardless of religious beliefs (or lack thereof) is to be admired and respected.
Her TED 2008 wish is to receive assistance in the creation of a worldwide Charter for Compassion, and the project is now well underway!  The site (PLEASE visit it) is CharterForCompassion.org and is actively calling for participation and action by people of all beliefs - even people of "no" belief, or at least no religious belief.  It is truly an all-inclusive endeavor.
Do your soul a favor and drop by the site.  Contribute if you are moved to do so.  Thank you!
