We live in the greatest country in the greatest time in history. Nonetheless, it is imperfect and needs our help.  I have offered 100 “good news” posts.  I think that science and religion, individuals and community and civility really matter.  We have the ability to move beyond populist, extremist, polarizing views.  Our neighbors and children deserve a better world.
