All Major Religions believe there is only one God. and it is that one God that sent all the Prophets. Hence, if you believe in God you must, on principle, accept all of ‘His’ messengers. Once we’ve understood this fundamental historical fact – we can then even be understanding of those who carry the same love and desire for inner and world peace in their hearts; even if they have come to that desire thru other understandings beyond that of only one God. As hard as it is to accept differences in style, dress, culture, food, music, standards, & ethics, it is an even greater challenge to accept those who show their love for God using different rituals from the ones you may chose. But, what is most important is not the ritual they chose to love God with. It is the fact that they too Love God, and spend their days honoring 'Him'. Please, do not judge with your eyes, that which your heart does not yet have the skill to see. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PEACE WALK PHOTOS Interfaith Peace Walk for Jewish-Muslim Reconciliation, Philadelphia 2 May 2004 The First one 2004 2005 Philadelphia Interfaith PeaceWalk Part 1 2005 Part 1 6 pages with 12 photos on each 2005 Philadelphia Interfaith PeaceWalk Part 2 2005 part 2 9 pages with 12 photos each 2006 - Ayesha Weinberga (a participent, said,"...

From this question a conversation took root and began to grow. The founding members of the IID knew from personal experience that a discussion on religion and spirituality did not have to digress into confusion, fighting, and anarchy. On the contrary the founding members understood that peace could be achieved by sharing different perspectives by listening to each other from the space of love, respect, tolerance, mercy, and compassion. Mission of the IID The Institute of Interfaith Dialog is a non-profit organization whose primary goal is to help bring together the communities in order to promote compassion, cooperation, partnership and community service through interfaith dialog and conversation. The IID is dedicated to encouraging the study of the global communities' spiritual traditions from the vantage point of respect, accuracy, and appreciation. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Interfaith.org This site has info on every religion - World News and Local.
