RT @graceishuman: Really,? Asking people JUST LEAVING the service how they felt about it? Tacky, tacky, inappropriate
Whitney Houston's funeral service really took the world to church. Love Pastor Winans' honesty, very moving.

Here’s an interesting example of religious cooperation…
The New York Times reported today that 60 religious leaders (from Islam, Christianity, and Judaism) have signed a statement asking governmental leaders to negotiate with Iran. They’re calling for peace, not potential war.
The statement draws examples of peace from all three religions and various sacred scriptures. It’s a great example of the kinds of positive outcomes that can be accomplished when we allow various religions to find a line of understanding and common ground. Their hope is that the presidential candidates will also read these words and consider peace as they work out their own Middle East policies. To see the full text of the statement (with the same name as the title of this post), click here.
