What is a Bright you ask? According to the Brights Web site www.the-brights.net , a bright is a person who has a naturalistic worldview. Whose worldview is free of supernatural and mystical elements. In a nutshell, we do not believe in a god or gods. Brights are individuals who do not think alike on many issues, and it is not our desire to press for conformity.

My journey to becoming a bright started long ago. I have always been skeptical and inquisitive. So when my questions about god or the bible were unanswered or answered with, "God works in mysterious ways," I would walk away frustrated, angry and dejected. As I became more educated I learned of many other religions and many other ways to view the world. With this knowledge I was forced conclude, they all can't be correct.

Thanks so much to Brian and Kelly for giving me a tremendous amount of time to speak about what's going on in Missouri about stem cell research.

If you all have any questions don't hesitate to ask and I will do my best to get back to everyone them.

Last week I had the honor of being a guest on the RRS with Brian and Kelly. I wanted to speak aboout my experiences as a patient advocate for embryonic stem cell research in Missouri. Certian politicians in MO actaully want to ban and criminalize people who participate in the research. Let me know what you think. I am not sure when they are going to air it, but as soon as I know I will post it.
