What We're About
The SnowStar Institute of Religion is neutral territory, a safe haven,
where seekers and followers of all faith traditions can come together
to respectfully and courageously examine, research, honour and celebrate
the historical and progressive theologies of their own religions and
those of others.
SnowStar examines the world, its believers and what they believe. SnowStar
promotes mutual understanding and tolerance of the world's belief systems:
Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Native, Pagan, Wiccan and other
richly fascinating and sustaining traditions. Agnostics, humanists,
the religiously devout and those in between have an equal voice in SnowStar,
as each is given access to leading scholars, philosophers, theologians,
clergy, writers, activists and other brave and insightful thinkers who
dedicate their lives to finding answers to questions - and questions
to answers.
A Canadian organization, SnowStar reaches out to members across its
own nation and around the globe. SnowStar does not promote one point
of view; it presents concepts and truths, founded in scholarly research,
global awareness and current, cutting-edge discoveries in theology,
science, archaeology, the arts, popular culture and other important
fields. Challenging, progressive, provocative, scholarly, respectful,
informed, probing...these are just a few adjectives which apply to the
conferences, workshops, publications and website that SnowStar produces
yearly for its members and the public.
