Welcome!![]() Ethics Is Our Religion Notable QuotesDreams are among our most precious possessions. We hold that dreams are not just for the night alone, but they are the stuff of daylight, outreachings of a better self, of a better tomorrow. Where our dreams meet, we may find one another, and a new life may be born. We cannot free people, but we can remove obstacles to their freedom and help them free themselves. We cannot make people want to live, but we can help remove the barriers to their living the conditions that kill the love of life. We cannot make people love one another, but we can bring them together, break down the walls and believe and try. Ethical Societies near the Northern Virginia Ethical Society:

Jane Addams, Mom, and Me
Submitted by Jone Johnson Lewis on Fri, 03/27/2009 - 12:31pm.
For Mother's Day, 2005, the platform address at the Northern Virginia Ethical Society looked at Jane Addams and social reform. I especially enjoyed that timing because my mother had been a #1 fan of Jane Addams, and had modeled her own professional life after what she got from the experience of Jane Addams. Addams also had a connection to the Ethical movement, which I bring out in the address. You can find the address here as a PDF file (printable, formatted): Jane Addams and Social Reform - May, 2005 »
