Interfaith Fellow’s Bi-Weekly Blog Post
The Times Show a Need for Interfaith Dialogue – Jackson Thiel
Recently the news world has been gripped by the evolving conflict between the United States and Iran. Usually during break I have a tradition of not looking at any news for two weeks—for the sake of my mental stability. Unfortunately, as a Political Science major who just spent the semester learning about terrorism, my friends and family have been asking my opinion on this—darn. Now as much as I love it, this is not a blog about international relations, but rather a blog about interfaith relations, and I feel like now with the heightened tension between the U.S. and part of the Islamic world, now is a good time to show the importance of interfaith dialogue.
