SIDP Mission

The Social Issues Discussion Project ("SIDP") presents science's findings that seem to parallel, and perhaps therefore, substantiate the Bible's suggested fundamental cause of and solution for social issues.

Addressing Social Issues' Fundamental Cause And Solution
Science's findings seem to substantiate the Bible's apparent suggestion that social issues are symptoms of an underlying cause. If they are, relieving social issue symptoms might be important, but those symptoms seem likely to reemerge unless the underlying cause is resolved. The SIDP presents the proposed underlying cause and its solution.

Presentation and Discussion

• based upon science with Internet references
• presented as theory open to substantiated challenge
• cooperative and respectful dialog
• SIDP Chatroom facilitates global, Internet, text-based discussion that seems more effective in some ways than oral discussion.

Strength Of Evidence And Reasoning
Since its maiden discussion in 2011, SIDP perspective seems to have stood up to scrutiny from differing perspectives with apparently high levels of topic experience, seems to have earned the respect of those less receptive to other approaches, and seems to have been described by many as enjoyable and educational.

Scope Of Benefit
The scope of benefit seems typically narrow for humanitarian efforts that address social issues. However, the SIDP addresses social issues' underlying cause, and therefore seems to impact every aspect of social issues, including the effectiveness of other humanitarian efforts.
