  Diverse Cultural and Religious Ways of Thinking. A Dialogue

  Our world is made up of a great variety of cultural and religious traditions. The question is, how can they enter into dialogue when they each have a unique view of reality and a distinct way of thinking? Scholars and political figures have wrestled with this question, which is critical in our globalized world. Productive dialogue is compromised when people of different cultures come together in a spirit of confrontation brought on by differences in worldview. Such confrontational attitudes seem to be increasing at a rapid and alarming rate. This Conference is based on the premise that cultural and religious differences, with their distinct and sometimes implacable features, are not in themselves barriers to genuine dialogue. Rather, they are seen as assets that can enable us as human beings to gain a more accurate understanding of ourselves and  others and thereby form a common vision for human society.
