What would be any suggestions on improving the mission statement, from you or anyone else?
The issue is not so much with the wording of the mission statement but with the underlying sentiment that get’s expressed.
CFAR does not try to dumb down things so that everybody can understand it. To the extend that you want to do that, you have to understand what that goal entails. CFAR rationality is a lot about self-skepticism. They are not confident that they know the truth and the problem is simply about enlightening the masses with that truth.
To me I read in neither of those statements that de-stigmatizing polyamory is part of your mission.
To be clear, our mission is to have more people think rationally about relationships, and we perceive de-stigmatizing polyamory as one subcomponent of that mission.
But your comments are duly noted, and we will be working on another post soon. Thanks for helping incrementally update my beliefs
