Humanists, and others thoughful about their faith, often find it difficult to explain their religious views in a few words. Ask an Ethical Society member or Unitarian to describe their religious views, and you might be in for a long night. But being concise can help clarify what is essential to a subject. Adam McNaughton, a songwriter from Glasgow, Scotland, has distilled Hamlet into a wonderful song lasting three minutes. It doesn't have the richness of the full five acts, but the outline is there. The Golden Rule is the result of a similar demand for concision. Michael Franch will explain his religion in three sentences, while avoiding its reduction to mere aphorisms. Your sentences might not be quite the same, but they would probably be similar. (Disclosure: This platform address will be longer than three sentences.)
