I hope you find this reply on point.
“There will be no peace among the nations without peace among the religions. There will be no peace among the religions without dialogue among the religions, and there will be no serious dialogue among the religions without common ethical standards"..... Hans Kung, Theologian
Somewhere along the path we independently came to the same conclusion as Hans Kung and formed a website, now in a pre-beta phase to promote and sustain an end to armed conflict by enabling willing religious people to encourage the leaders of their faiths to organize and engage in high profile global meetings to outline a set of jointly held beliefs common to all.
We call this new site
Peace and Conflict Resolution.Org.
Many of us feel that that common Muslim, Jew, and Christian get along just fine in much of the world and its the religious leaders that lead their people wrong. We would like to see the religious leaders in high profile symbolic discussion searching for common ethical values. We don't want to change religious beliefs we want to change practices of our religious leaders.
What if 500-million Catholics, 400-million Protestants, 300-million Muslims, 100-million Hindu's and 500-million others from traditional religions around the globe called upon their religious leaders to commence symbolic, high level East-West dialogue to find shared global ethics? At some point in this process would not such a grand Tally (
The Tally) become overwhelming and enlightening?
Eventually such a record could not be denied. You can help construct that record with a few clicks of your mouse and send your religious leaders a Note of Encouragement which offers the following:
My voice joins with hundreds of millions of voices to enable serious East-West dialog among religions.
We ask that you use your religious office to commence and sustain symbolic, high level dialogue among willing religions to find shared global ethics common to all faiths.
This note was commissioned by me to be sent to you by Peace and Conflict Resolution.org
Most of us have come to find good people of all faiths in our everyday life who are kind, good, and peaceful. They are people just like you. We are the peacemakers. We much help guide our religious leaders. We are responsible for the religious leadership over the long run.
While the people see the good in their fellow man and wonder why their own church can not, our religious leaders for any number of reasons often seem focused more on setting impossible, ancient preconditions to East-West dialog.
We are in a new era. The power of the internet enables you to enlighten religious leaders through your own inspired resolve. Your resolve is an act of love which can not be denied. Your "Note of Encouragement" politely guides religious leaders to do what must be done and undertake East-West dialog. Eventually "The Tally" will overcome those seemingly impossible ancient preconditions to East-West dialog.
