An impressive call for tolerance and interfaith dialogue from a Christian religious leader in Dayton, Ohio. I want to quote two bits of it here:
"America is not a 'Christian nation.' It is but one family in the 'world house.' During the time of the Apostle Paul, the Christians of Rome did not live in a Christian society, either. He wrote to them in Romans 12:18, 'Live in peace with all if possible, to the extent that it depends on you.'"
"To live together in lasting peace, tolerance is not enough. Respecting others does not mean "leaving them alone." It means taking an active interest in them."
