Despite all the lunacy of the last century, all the absurdity of war and genocide, we believe that humans being are rational and are made to seek the truth.

Christianity will only make a contribution to the future of Europe if it can prove that people like Sam Harris are wrong and that we can make peace.

Most religions live from a narrative that shapes their relationship with the divine other, God or the gods, and with the human other, the stranger.
