The Moral Matrix is a website dedicated to bringing moral ideas with a Biblical basis to the Internet for all to use.

Although the Internet is a wonderful new way of communication, it is deficient in that it contains an enormous amount of morally erroneous material.  By being on the Internet, it is hoped that the Moral Matrix will provide a small balancing force against such erroneous material on the Internet and in the current popular culture.

The "web", as it is called, contains information about everything from why you should crush yogurt cups to quantum theory.  Information, though is not wisdom.  This site is an attempt to bring some small amount of the wisdom of the Holy Bible to as many people as possible.  Fortunately and unfortunately the Bible is densely packed with both its wisdom and knowledge.  Fortunately because it means we can find answers to most, if not all, of our questions.  Unfortunately because it requires time to find the answers for which we are looking.

There are a myriad of ways of interpreting what we see, hear, read, and experience, and it takes conscious mental effort combined with patience to extract wisdom from it all.  The Bible is truthful, but it can also appear to contradict itself.  The contradictions typically define the moral limits to an issue or idea.  Unfortunately, these moral limits are not always described in the same place in the Bible.  The goal of the Moral Matrix is to bring the different sides of different moral ideas together more readily.

Bible commentaries, cross references, concordances, and topical Bibles were written to open up our understanding of the Holy Bible.  The Moral Matrix takes a directed approach towards answering the moral questions of the world, rather than an open ended study of the Bible.

Finally, the Bible does not need the Moral Matrix, but the Moral Matrix needs the Bible.  So we should rely on the Bible for wisdom.  God speaks to us through His word, so reading the Bible should never be relegated to a subordinate status.
