Reflections on: The Distinctive Value of Ethical Culture in the 21st Century

The online Ethical Culture Journal, Reflections, published 2017 - 2019, provided a forum for Ethical Culture Leaders to discuss specific issues of relevance and concern to members of the Ethical Culture Movement in the 21st century. Carolyn A. Parker, Ph.D. continues a series of platforms drawing on these discussions.

When Ethical Culture was founded in the nineteenth century, it introduced something new, perhaps radical, to the world of religion. Ethical Culture was also then on the cutting edge of progressive social change. We are now in a different time politically and religiously. What is there that is distinctive about Ethical Culture in the current era? With many diverse expressions of both liberal religion and humanism, what distinguishes Ethical Culture in matters of belief? How does Ethical Culture differ from generic liberalism?
