Over 2000 years we Christians have imbibed wisdom, 18 cultural information from other faiths; through college/university studies and great 19 20 21 literature — let us share this.  e way we 22 23 read scripture still varies among us. THE GOLDEN RULE: Is the principle of 24 25 26 27 treating others as you want to be treated. It is a maxim that is found in most religions 28 and cultures. 29 30 31 32 33 34 British author Karen Armstrong writes: “Compassion requires us to open our minds 35 36 and hearts to all people. is means that we must get to know about our neighbours in 37 38 39 40 the global village and realise that our own tradition is not alone in its pursuit of the 41 compassionate idea. e comparative study 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 of religions is not designed to dilute your appreciation of your own or to make you 51 52 53 54 convert to another tradition. Ideally it should help you to see the faith that you are most 55 56 57 58 familiar with in a diff erent, richer light. By 59 making room for other traditions in your mind, you are beginning to appreciate what many 60 61 62 63 64 human beings, whatever their culture and beliefs, hold in common.” 65 Fr Dominic Kirkham: “We have now moved beyond the traditionally religious constraints 66 67 68 69 70 of thinking, not to reject them in a formal 71 atheistic or secular sense, but to expand and enhance them by responding to modern 72 73 74 75 76 knowledge of the way things are.
