I for Peace t’s to bad I missed the peogram. I would have loved to hear and see it. I was talking to someone who was there. Ithink and belive that having a islamis call to prayer is great. After all it is a Mass. AS a christian society we should be open and willing to discuss our simulities and differnces. That is hoe peace in the world it to start. I remember that St Franes, went to the seracins where they discussed religion and both went their own way.wither a greatewr respect for oneother. and the muslum took better care of his prisinors. Peace in the world can only comeabout with prayer and discussion and acceptance of oneanotyher and being a exampler to our children and grandchildren.Even in the New Testement,look at the Good Semertin, the woman at the well, and who did christ pick for His diciples fishermen a tax collector who at that time was the loest people around. And a prostitute. What more does thast have to say to us.So I stand up and say BRAVO!!Hope to get one of the CDS when they come out.
