Progressive Christian conversation

1


1 per hour - Virtual OK - Posted Jan 10, 2017

Yes, there is such a thing as a progressive Christian. We do exist, we're just less vocal than the more fundamentalist ones. I think that should change. As a progressive Christian, I am appalled by the behavior of some other so-called Christians, and I want to set the record straight on REAL Christianity. If you're curious, we can chat about it. I am very open minded. I love discussing my beliefs. I don't believe in judging people. I'm a rational and loving person. We can chat as long as you like. Let your mind be open to a new perspective, and you might be surprised!

Training & Qualifications


I am a lifelong ELCA Lutheran. (Not Missouri Synod!) I don't just attend services and send my kids to Sunday School. I am active in my church groups, and with progressive political causes. I see no conflict between science and my religion, and no conflict between the values of the Green Party and my religion. My pastor is a married woman, my daughter is bisexual and a confirmed Lutheran, and I love her fiercely. My best friend is an atheist (and the mother of my daughter's girlfriend) I am a licensed veterinarian, a biology major, and I was a member of Christian Veterinary Mission in veterinary school.

Availability & Preferences


My availability varies, but I usually carry my smartphone, so you can message me and I'll get it. I haven't used skype much, but I'd be willing to try it.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

Kelly was courteous and offered interesting, detailed explanations of her faith.

Kelly is thoughtful, passionate about service, and interested in building bridges. We had a 45 min conversation about politics, and religion. Even t...hough we had disagreements we really share 95% of our beliefs in common. Wonderful person!show more

Kelly was kind enough to experiement with gluten free bread making for me. It was delivered warm, and it's been over ten years since I tasted fresh-b...aked bread straight from the oven! My kids (who are gluten intolerant) didn't even know bread could be soft and warm! I am thrilled with bread and Kelly's willingness to adapt her service for me!show more

I believe a new system that fosters cooperation is needed to counteract the negative forces instigating violence and fear today. I believe the competitive quest for money is killing humanity.

About Kelly Tamburello DVM

I am a retired veterinarian, with 6 years experience. I graduated from the University of Illinois in 2000. I used to enjoy surgery and animal behavior work the best. I retired in 2006 to become a mo...ther of 2. I currently have 14 years experience at that and counting. I crochet at an intermediate level. I am a very neat and precise cross stitcher even if I'm not very fast. I can do basic mending by hand. . I garden at a beginner level. I volunteer at my church's donation garden. I read extensively, particularly fantasy and fiction. Lately I've been reading a lot of non-fiction about progressive topics. My hobbies are organic gardening, sewing and crafts, themed kids parties, environmental activism, animal and human rights, and baking bread. I have been a Girl Scout leader and continue to assist with the area service unit. I am involved in Transition, Food and Water Watch, The Green Party, and the ELCA women's group at my church. I am home alone most days during the school day and busy as all get out at night and on weekends running mom's taxi service to after school activities. I am working on developing my computer skills and I'm interested in becoming proficient in database use, and using a Mac. I like to go camping when the weather is nice and walking (not running) outside when I can. I have an analytical mind and I love working on complex problems, particularly in my areas of interest. show more
