Hello!
Welcome to PaulMurano.com
This site is dedicated to the millions of innocent people killed before birth each year by surgical and chemical abortion (including by abortifacient “contraceptives”). We deeply mourn their loss and profoundly suffer its ramifications as a society.
A little about me: I am simply a curious truth seeker and always have been, following faith and reason wherever it leads. There is nothing more important than to discover and conform one’s life to objective truth. My aim here is to provide a forum to share thoughts, ideas, and reasoned discussion for people with adult minds and childlike hearts.
I have never shied away from asking the big questions of life, nor should you. For the past twenty-five years I have been discussing them as a college instructor of philosophy, ethics and theology, a radio and TV talk host, a newspaper columnist, a teacher of adult education and catechesis, a commentator and blogger on social media, and a speaker on issues of where faith and reason meet.
Much of my work goes under the title and branding of ‘Beneath the Surface’ with Paul Murano. It is beneath the surface where we find that faith and reason meet, and that truth, life, and love are one.
While I appreciate mystery, I highly value clarity. As talk host Dennis Prager often says, “I prefer clarity to agreement.” It is *clear* that I *agree* with this. 🙂
In my spare time I play guitar and sing oldies hits and originals as a solo artist. Musically, I’ve been influenced by the simple and melodious rock/pop of the 1960’s and 70’s – the genre of the Beatles, the Monkees, James Taylor, Neil Diamond, Jim Croce, and the like.
With regard to formal education, I have a master’s degree in philosophy, a master’s in theology, a certification in health care ethics from the National Catholic Bioethics Center; and I am A.B.D. of a Ph.D. program in systematic theology.
E-mail me if you find yourself looking for a speaker to delve beneath the surface, or a musician to remain above it.
Lastly, St. Edith Stein once said that we can reach God through thinking as a form of prayer. Therefore, my fellow truth-seekers, let us prayerfully think together in this intellectual medium where faith and reason meet.
Peace, Paul
