Spreading Light: 2022 Kazakh Interfaith Summit
![Spreading Light: 2022 Kazakh Interfaith Summit Spreading Light: 2022 Kazakh Interfaith Summit](https://cdn.ipernity.com/200/38/96/51583896.3cc5a6fe.640.jpg?r2)

St. Nicholas of Myra Byzantine Catholic Church, White Plains, NY
It was encouraging to see Pope Francis demonstrated courage to attend the 2022 Kazakh Interfaith Summit despite objections from the dying minority that cling to the archaic and obsolete “one true religion” view that is antithetical to God's love, limits the power of the resurrection, monopolizes Jesus Christ’s saving grace and has caused so much human grief and suffering through the ages. During this conference, participants referenced the historic “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed by Pope Francis and Sheikh Ahmed Al Tayyeb, the Grand Imam of al-Azhar in Abu Dhabi, UAE (February 2019).
During his closing speech, Pope Francis reinforced Point 10 of the summit’s declaration – “We note that pluralism and differences in religion, skin color, gender, race, and language are expressions of the wisdom of God’s will in creation. …any incident of coercion to a particular religion and religious doctrine is unacceptable”[1] – declaring “extremism, radicalism, terrorism and all other forms of violence and wars, whatever their goals, have nothing to do with true religion and must be rejected in the strongest possible term.” He also called on “world leaders to ‘abandon all aggressive and destructive rhetoric which leads to destabilization… and to cease from conflict and bloodshed…”[2]

You did another excellent and profound poster/reflection, William!
Un rendu bien évocateur et très révélateur.
Bonne soirée.
The eternal, senseless bloodshed must indeed come to an end.
But until that happens, fanaticism, greed, hatred, and envy will claim many more victims ...
Stay well, William!
Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))
Wonderful creation and great words, William!
William Sutherland club has replied to ©UdoSm clubA splendid creation of yours, William!
William Sutherland club has replied to Andy Rodker clubtolerance is always a must often not present ...
My credo is Tolerance!
But, ... I am always shocked that pain is the symbol of a peace preaching religion.
William Sutherland club has replied to Eva Lewitus clubOui le Pape a eu beaucoup de courage (mais je pense que c'est aussi son rôle d'être téméraire et exemplaire dans le monde où nous vivons)
ta photo bien composée et présentée est à nouveau un beau symbole à cet évènement
It gives us hope that somewhere, somehow, we can still find true persons.
And hope grows from them and touches everybody if you listen to what they say.
Have a good weekend
