This Religious Broadcasting Page is a companion page to two other sites. The other companion page deals with religious freedom. Some religious broadcasters may feel uncomfortable being placed on the same general web site as groups they believe to be apostolic or heretical of their perspective. We hope they will feel more comfortable in the knowledge that this site seeks also to promote and protect religious freedom. If they do not, then they need to be reminded that the evangelical traditions that most religious broadcasters represent have been deeply suspect by the broader culture.
Religious freedom is one of the most cherished of human freedoms.
The Religious Movements Page grew out of the author's years of teaching a course at the University of Virginia called New Religious Movements. The site seeks to provide objective information about many of the lesser known religious of our time, but it also seeks to make the point that all religious were once new. The Religious Freedom Page documents the critical role of religious freedom as the first and indispensable human liberty. It also provides resources for assessing the relationship between religious freedom and the emergence of universal human rights. Like the Religious Movement and Religious Freedom pages, this page would not be possible without the volunteer efforts of students.
