In the spirit of transparency and to provide further understanding of the readings and research that I have done, I wish to offer a comprehensive list of the faiths, perspectives, and belief systems whose Virtues I have made a part of my work.

The process of selecting the 25 from the many virtues represented was a combination of:
1. Frequency of each virtue amongst faiths/philosophies
2. Relative emphasis of each virtue in each given faith/philosophy
3. My judgement based on extensive research

If there are faiths, perspectives, and belief systems that I have not included, it is not intentional.  Please contact me with any perspective that you think/feel will further this work.
