Carol is a writer - The Philadelphia Science Examiner - http://www.examiner.com/x-49657-Philadelphia-Science-Examiner, and the Philadelphia Freethought Examiner http://www.examiner.com/x-44168-Philadelphia-Freethought-Examiner; a painter and photographer - http://www.carolroper.com, and serves on the board of directors of the Freethought Society - http://www.ftsociety.org. A 13 year former sysop on CompuServe's Religion Forum, she embraces the concepts of Freethought, Humanism, Naturalism, and the separation of church and state. Her lifelong passion for science has brought her tremendous joy and in her science writings, she strives to explain what's going on in cutting edge areas and make it comprehensible to non-scientists.
Endlessly curious, her passion for science and art enriches her life as a wife, mother, and grandmother. As a concerned humanitarian, Carol's ambition is to encourage tolerance and compassion.
