http://www.therationale.com/ Tapsearch Com Editor and Artist Ray Tapajna is now moderator for TheRationale.com. It's mission is to sort out the changes in the "evolution" of religion for the sake of the common good which has lately been subject to the "greatest good for the greatest number" which means that number could be only a few out of a million. The primary objective is to prompt the biblical saying - "do unto others as you would have them do to you" to touch the workday where so many find it difficult to connect their spirtuality with their work. Hopefully a new "Solidarity" of self, work and society can be initiated.
